Presentation of a new Holocaust memorial concept, “The Danube Memorial.” to be situated along the Danube Canal in Vienna, Austria in 2012. “The Danube Memorial” will be the first memorial in all of Europe to name all the victims of National Socialism (i.e. Nazism) within a given country. Joining graffiti art with archival research and educational programming, “The Danube Memorial” is envisioned as a “living” memorial based on a participatory model of engagement.
