Finding Treblinka

The touring exhibition Finding Treblinka: Artists Respond was commissioned by Centre for Archaeology, Staffordshire University & funded by Rothschild Foundation.

Finding Treblinka includes new physical evidence uncovered during a seven-year research investigation by forensic archaeologist Caroline Sturdy-Colls, which sheds new light on the nature of the Nazis’ crimes. A temporary exhibition 'Finding Treblinka: Artists Respond' accompanies the permanent installation, representing an innovative collaboration in which five artists have responded to non-invasive forensic science data and archaeological findings from both the extermination and labour camps. The opening of the exhibitions featured a commemoration ceremony, and took place on the 72nd anniversary of the Treblinka revolt.
