“
I shot the photographs for this piece at the Buchenwald
concentration camp during a trip to Germany in 1991 to photo-
graph steel plants and research genocide. Included in the work is
a letter written in 1938 by Baron von Thyssen (the head of the
largest steel trust in Germany who joined the Nazi Party in
1931)
to other German industrialists in support of Hitler and
his promises of criminalizing strikes and making abundant slave
labor available. Also included are images of a large map of all
levels of German prison, concentration, and slave labor camps.”
