Stanley Saitowitz's design for the New
England Holocaust Memorial is best described in these quotes
by Elie Wiesel:
Look at these towers, passerby, and try to imagine what
they really mean - what they symbolize - what they evoke. They
evoke an era of incommensurate darkness, an era in history when
civilization lost its humanity and humanity its soul . . .
We must look at these towers of memory and say to ourselves,
No one should ever deprive a human being of his or her right
to dignity. No one should ever deprive anyone of his or her right
to be a sovereign human being. No one should ever speak again
about racial superiority... We cannot give evil another chance. |
