Auschwitz holocaust dance angers Jewish community in Aus – but WHY? Don’t they want to be FREE?

Posted by admin on March 30th, 2011 and filed under Jewish Art | 25 Comments »

Work won’t set you free? Then dance, uhh!!! Jewish community are outraged after a Melbourne family filmed themselves dancing to the pop song ‘I will Survive’ while on a trip to Auschwitz. The YouTube clip is the work of a Melbourne artist who claims her work is a celebration of life.

Jane Korman filmed three generations of her family, including her father, a holocaust survivor, dancing and singing outside the Nazi death camp….. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUvo5OHH6o8 (Parts 1 -3)

As many as 1.1 million people were murdered there by the Nazis in World War II. The video also shows the family dancing at a Polish synagogue, the German concentration camp at Dachau, the Czech concentration camp at Theresienstadt and at a Polish memorial to the victims of the Nazi ghetto.

The video ends with Korman’s emotional 89-year-old father Adolk describing his return to Poland with his three grandchildren as “a really historic moment” http://www.news.com.au/national/outrage-over-melbourne-artist-jane-kormans-i-will-survive-dance-at-polish-death-camp/story-e6frfkvr-1225891392172

jewish artist defends YouTube video ‘Dancing Auschwitz’
Jewish Australian artist Jane Korman created video installation of her family dancing in front of Holocaust landmarks to show different point of view.

The clip depicted the Korman family dancing in front of Holocaust land marks in Poland, including infamous entrance sign to Auschwitz death camp reading “Arbeit Macht Frei,” a Polish synagogue, Dachau, Theresienstadt, and a memorial in Lodz.

Her father at one point in the clip even wore a shirt on which the word “Survivor” was written….. http://www.haaretz.com/jewish-world/jewish-artist-defends-youtube-video-dancing-auschwitz-1.301096

Storm as Australian artist Jane Korman dances at Nazi death camp – “I wanted to make artwork that creates a fresh interpretation of historical memory,” Ms Korman said. “He [her father] is saying ‘we’re dancing, we should be dancing, we’re celebrating our survival and the generations after me. We are affirming our existence’.”

But the video – which was also displayed in an Australian art gallery – has been met with anger by some Holocaust survivors and has been picked up and exploited by neo-Nazi websites.

“I don’t see how this video is a mark of respect for the millions who didn’t survive, nor for those who did,” Kamil Cwiok, 86, told The Daily Mail. “It seems to trivialise the horrors that were committed there.”

NSW Jewish Board of Deputies CEO Vic Alhadeff said there was a time and place to celebrate survival.

“As human beings, we have a right to celebrate survival, but there is a time and place to do so,” he said.

“There is an infinite number of ways to do that, but we need to consider the sensibilities of those for whom places such as Auschwitz will always hold terrible pain and indelible memories . . Auschwitz is one of the world’s largest cemeteries…” http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/storm-as-australian-artist-jane-korman-dances-at-nazi-death-camp/story-e6freuy9-1225891333081

A YouTube video showing a Holocaust survivor and members of his family dancing to “I Will Survive” at concentration camps and Nazi-related sites in Europe is sparking international outrage….. http://www.torontosun.com/news/world/2010/07/13/14697401.html

The video is available on YouTube, and formed part of a series of three videos and a photographic exhibition shown at Monash University’s Runt Gallery last year titled Dancing Auschwitz….. http://news.ninemsn.com.au/national/7928701/auschwitz-dance-video-causes-outrage

InOverOurHeads Jewish Reality TV “Expectations” Part 1 of 2

Posted by admin on May 31st, 2010 and filed under Jewish TV | 1 Comment »

Do you find yourself struggling to meet people’s expectations? … community, parents, spouse, G-d, and self. In Jewish culture, these expectations can be so strong that they interfere with people’s ability to approach life in a sincere way. This episode of InOverOurHeads addresses those feelings head on. Let us know what you think at www.inoverourheads.com. Let your friends know and fan us on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/pages/In-Over-Our-Heads/175088849228.

InOverOurHeads, the first unscripted Jewish reality television series, is now on the first global network devoted to what it means to be Jewish, JLTV – the Jewish Life Television Network. InOverOurHeads sneaks a peek at the crazy lives of a few close friends. Coping with the realities of their restless existence as young, Jewish parents, they debate the absurd, laugh at convention, and reevaluate their ideals in a humorous, yet introspective way. Maintaining a decorum not quite fitting for shul [synagogue, the topics wander into sensitive areas such as marriage, parenting, religion, gender issues, and education. The discussions are honest and irreverent, often with a deep spiritual undertone. They rip apart stereotypes of observant Jews – although like most Jews, they hardly ever agree. InOverOurHeads airs Tuesdays at 8pm Eastern and 9pm Pacific, broadcasting nationwide on DirecTV channel 366, in select metropolitan areas via nationwide affiliations with Time Warner and Comcast, and online at www.jltv.tv. (Please see www.inoverourheads.com for additional air times.) JLTV currently reaches 26 million homes and is anticipated to expand to 40 million homes by year end.

Malkah and Simcha meet Mindy in the Big Apple, three moms from Orthodox communities heading out for an unorthodox night on the town. Is there something spiritual to be found in the all-night club scene or this just an escape from the monotonous stresses of life? Watch, decide for yourself, and let us know what you think.
