Griselda Pollock offers a profound re-examination of Charlotte Salomon’s autobiographical masterpiece, Life? or Theatre?, situating the work within the broader context of twentieth-century modernism and the trauma of the Holocaust. Through rigorous visual analysis, Pollock explores how Salomon utilized a unique synthesis of painting, text, and musical notation to construct a complex narrative of identity, memory, and survival during the rise of National Socialism.
