Shlomo Selinger devant son monument du camp de Drancy

Inauguration of the commemorative monument made by the artist Shlomo Selinger, 9 May 1976.

A part of Shlomo Selinger’s works was presented at the Memorial. Through his sculptures and drawings, Shlomo Selinger translates the Shoah of which he was a victim. Deported at the age of thirteen and a half, he was interned in 9 concentration camps. Orphaned, he learns to live again and leaves immediately after the war for Israel, where his wife and son will be a source of inspiration. This artist notably created the monument of Drancy.
