Exhibition Opening: The Last European
Jewish Perspectives on the crisis of an Idea


Seventy-five years after the end of World War II, Europe is threatened by a relapse into nationalistic and inhumane ideologies.
The European imperative of “Never Again!” is being challenged by many, also here in Austria.

At the same time, Europe’s nationalists are discovering their own fantasy of the “Judeo-Christian West”—as a battle cry against immigration and integration. The purportedly universal values of the Enlightenment, which were part of the foundations of European rapprochement in the wake of the catastrophes of the 20th century, show their flipside, hereby becoming means of seclusion and exclusion.
