The Holocaust Memorial of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation, Holocaust memorial Meridian Avenue, Miami Beach, Florida, Sculpture Kenneth Treister
























Photographs taken by my sister.




NEVER SHALL WE FORGET. The totality of the Holocaust cannot be created in stone and bronze ...but I had to try. The rich diversity of the European culture, now lost, cannot be expressed ... but I had to try. The murder of one and one half million children whose joys turned to sorrow suddenly on September 1, 1939, when World War 11 broke out, cannot be sculpted...

But I had to try. Six million moments of death cannot be understood...

But we must all try.  Kenneth Treister
