Aftershocks: Nolan and the Holocaust is an exhibition of paintings by Australian artist Sidney Nolan presented by Melbourne Holocaust Museum. The collection includes 56 works of Nolan’s 1961 paintings of Auschwitz victims and, exhibited for the first time, his later works depicting the Ravensbrück women’s Holocaust camp.
Sidney Nolan’s engagement with the Holocaust began in 1961, following the trial of Nazi perpetrator Adolf Eichmann and a visit to Auschwitz. What followed was a deeply personal artistic response, as Nolan created a series of raw and emotional works reflecting his traumatic encounter with the atrocities of Auschwitz.
