Hall of Choices

A sculptural installation symbolizing the various ethical dilemmas and attitudes one could encounter during the war. The exhibit said that for every choice, there can be both good and bad results, and it's up to the individual to decide what the right choice is.

I've uploaded all my pictures from Schindler's famous factory pretty much at once as I feel they're more effective as a whole. Please enjoy browsing this small sub-gallery of a very moving testament to the good that one man with a conscience can do.

Nice photo and gallery. You hit the nail on the head. A matter of conscience! But conscience also needs trained and active, not deadened or numbed by selfish, inhumane influence.

graphically potent, yet difficult to decipher...the tension of the dilemmas is aptly captured..
