The Jewish Museum Berlin is showing a video work that was created in 2014 in Kibbutz Be’eri, one of the main sites of the Hamas massacre.
In the Jewish Museum Berlin, the axis of continuity, after crossing the axis of the Holocaust, runs towards the steep staircase that leads to the permanent position. After a few steps, the Eric F. Ross Gallery opens on the left. The video “Rehearsing the Spectacle of Specters” from 2014 has been showing here on the big screen for a few days. It was created in Kibbutz Be’eri, which was founded in 1946 and was a main site of the Hamas massacre on October 7th. The images and reports that came from here showed the extreme brutality of the murderers, who combined killing with torturing, torturing parents in front of their children and children in front of their parents.
