The Objects of Love: In Memory of the 85th Anniversary of Kristallnacht

Oliver Sears in Conversation with Rabbi David Ingber

Nov 6, 2023


Join Rabbi David Inger and Oliver Sears in commemorating the 85th anniversary of Kristallnacht through the exhibition The Objects of Love.

This emotional journey unveils Oliver Sears’ family story through a curated collection of precious objects, photos, and documents, reflecting on memory and family narratives. Amidst rising antisemitism and global uncertainty, the exhibition serves as a poignant reminder of a normal family’s tragic transformation under the persecution of the Holocaust in Nazi-occupied Poland. Through this heart-rending experience, we seek to understand the human impact of hatred and intolerance while emphasizing the importance of remembrance and compassion. Let us honor the memory of those who endured and draw strength from their resilience, fostering empathy and a commitment to building a more tolerant world. Together, we ensure that the lessons of the past guide us towards a future characterized by unity and respect for all.

Special thanks to Patrick O’Donovan, Minister of State for the Office of Public Works, (OPW). Rosemary Collier, Head of Heritage and Capital Works, OPW. Katie Morrisroe, Head of National Historic Properties, OPW. Mary Heffernan, Head of National Monuments, OPW and Jurga Rakauskaite, Graphic Designer, OPW.
