Good Condition

This book explores the artistic representations and memorializations of the Holocaust produced over the last 25 years - works by a generation of artists who have experienced the Holocaust only vicariously, (through films, memoirs, novels etc.), but whose artistic and moral consciousness is indelibly shaped by this defining event of the twentieth-century. Unlike their predecessors, this generation of artists has rejected faith in the consoling functions of art, and have sought instead to memorialize the Holocaust without offering comfort or "final solutions." Young examines a range of projects by both German and American artists, from well-known works such as Spiegelman's Maus to more obscure images and installations - all of which are concerned as much with the aesthetic and ethical impossibility of representing the Holocaust as with the Holocaust itself.
