Description
As part of the Normandie Impressionniste festival and in partnership with the Christophe Gaillard gallery, the Frac Normandie is presenting a new exhibition devoted to the Austrian Romani artist Ceija Stojka.
A painter and poet, her work made her an indispensable witness to the genocide of the Roma by the Nazis. Through more than 60 works comprising drawings, paintings and postcards, the exhibition retraces the years she spent in the hell of the concentration camps, while paintings of idyllic, colourful landscapes evoke her nomadic, happy and free life in her caravan before and after the war.
