Eyes open, hands ready. Worlds of Arnošt Beneš (1900 Třebíč-1943 Auschwitz)

Friday 3 January at 6 pm

The exhibition, based on the story of Třebíč native Arnošt Beneš, will remind not only the existence of one of the fundamental Moravian Jewish communities, but above all the personality of a man gifted with many talents - Arnošt Beneš was a photographer, painter, filmmaker, cabinetmaker, carver, collector, accountant and sales representative of the Grünberger company. The visually conceived exhibition will present the Beneš family in the context of Třebíč history. There will be never published artistic photographs and paintings by Arnošt Beneš, excerpts from his silent films from the late 1930s with unique commentary by his grandchildren, accompanied by personal objects and documents from the family archive.   
Admission is voluntary.
