As part of the Normandie Impressionniste festival and in partnership with the Christophe Gaillard gallery, the Frac Normandie presents a new exhibition dedicated to Austrian Romani artist Ceija Stojka.
A painter and poet, her work made her an essential witness to the genocide of the Roma by the Nazis. Through more than 60 works—comprising drawings, paintings, and postcards—the exhibition retraces the years spent in the hell of concentration camps. Alongside these are paintings of colorful, idyllic landscapes that evoke her happy, free, and nomadic life in a caravan before and after the war.
