      <title>What Makes a Monument? by Emily Blackwell</title>
      <link>https://padlet.com/ejb1271/dx8ub8pkut1brvkp</link>
      <description>The Oxford English Dictionary defines the word &#39;monument&#39; as &quot;a statue, building, or other structure erected to commemorate a famous or notable person or event.&quot; Worldwide, monuments can range in size, scale, expense, and color. Let&#39;s explore how this broad range affects (or may not affect) the significance and importance of the commemoration and dedication of a few visited monuments in the capital of the Netherlands, the city of Amsterdam.</description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This German artist created "Stolpersteine," which translates to "Stumbling Stones," based on Jewish mourning traditions with the hopes of connecting both the past and present through this global art project. The point of these 3.9 in. diameter copper-colored stones is to make the public literally 'stumble' upon a Jewish individual or family who gravely suffered the Nazi party's persecution and extermination. These stones are placed in pavement directly outside of the last known place of residence of the victims. The hope of these small monuments is to never forget the individual lives of the thousands of Jews who resided in Amsterdam and in 23 other countries worldwide.</div>]]></description>

Is this type of monument and it's small size representative of the significance and importance of remembering victims of the Holocaust in the city of Amsterdam?<br>2. When translated, the Stumbling Stones either say the word "survived" or "murdered." What is the impact of using this type of language?&nbsp;<br>3. What do you think about the concept of 'stumbling' upon a monument?&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This monument can be found in the former Jewish Quarter of Amsterdam. The odd shape of this monument is to represent the Hebrew script that reads "in memory of" from a bird's-eye view. The 6-foot tall brick walls feature more than 102,000 names of victims who were killed during the Holocaust. Each named brick also includes the date of birth and age at death of every victim, ranging from an infant to an elderly individual. The use of bricks was chosen to represent Amsterdam and Dutch culture's past while the use of reflective mirrors was chosen to represent the present by literally using reflections.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. What impact does the interesting design and use of various materials have on the significance and importance of this monument? How many different ways can this monument be viewed by the public?<br>2. Both the Stumbling Stones and Name Monuments allow viewers to physically touch the names of victims of the Holocaust. Does this add an additional element to the monuments? Is it necessary for an emotional connection to the monuments?<br>3. Artist Daniel Libeskind&nbsp;is the son of Holocaust survivors. Is his personal connection to the event seen in the design of this monument? Without the personal connection, do you think he would have curated the same design?</div>]]></description>

Is it representative of the importance of remembering the victims and the 3 caregiver heroes?<br>2. If it is known that 3 caregivers volunteered to go with the boys to the concentration camp, why is there not more information given at the monument? Are their names known? Were they Jewish as well?&nbsp;<br>3.&nbsp;The lack of color and height with the design of this monument can cause it to easily be missed by the public. Why wouldn't the artist choose to create a monument that is more easily seen?</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>This monument was erected to commemorate the memory of Anne Frank, a 15 year old young girl who was murdered in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp during the Holocaust and who is famous for the diary she kept about her experiences in hiding in the annex located around the corner from this monument. There is a quote written on the marker in front of the monument that reads: "I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love. Let me be myself and then I am satisfied." - Anne Frank.&nbsp;<br>The artist, Mari Andriessen, was chosen for this project because of his ties to aiding Jewish people in hiding during the Second World War and for using his studio as a weapons depot for the Dutch resistance.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. In what ways does the relative size of this monument create emotional connections to whom it commemorates?<br>2. It is said that Anne Frank is depicted to be around 10 years old in this statue. What does her youth, her stance, her head position and her facial expression specifically chosen by the artist convey?&nbsp;<br>3.&nbsp;Why isn't this monument directly in front of the Anne Frank House Museum? Is there any significance in having it around the corner from where she was hidden?</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>According to Wolkers, ever since Auschwitz the sky has been broken. This is why he chose broken mirrors on the ground for this monument, so that they would reflect a broken sky. There are 6 different panes of broken mirrors, each to represent 1 million Jews, for a total of 6 million Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust. Part of the text next to the monument reads, "this is a place of remembrance and grief, of guilt and repentance, a warning for all generations throughout the world."</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. What is the significance (or insignificance) of the placement of this monument, on a large scale of being in Amsterdam and on a smaller scale specifically in relation to the amount of tree coverage above it?&nbsp;<br>2.&nbsp;Does the size and scale of this monument - including 6 panes for mirrors - aid in the importance of the commemoration of the monument? <br>3. For the design of this monument, regular upkeep and maintenance are needed for the full effect. What are ways to improve upon the design to naturally allow for cleanliness that would not involve human interference?&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>"SUCH AN ENDLESS DESIRE FOR FRIENDSHIP" is inscribed on one of the three pink triangles that forms the larger triangle of this monument commemorating all LGBTQIA+ who were murdered and persecuted during World War II in the Netherlands and those around the world today who are still being persecuted for their identities. The artist chose three triangles specifically to represent the past, present and the future while the pink triangle itself is significant because homosexuals were required to wear a pink triangle badge just as Jews were required to wear the Star of David badge during the Holocaust. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. What might the artist have been trying to convey in using a pink triangle - a symbol of standing out during the war - in the creation of the monument's design?<br>2. How does the size, scale, and color of this monument affect it's significance and importance of the commemoration?<br>3.&nbsp;Because of the relative size of this monument, parts of the whole might be missed by the public. Would this affect the significance and meaning behind the monument at all?</div>]]></description>

         <title>Transformation of building by BETA and Elisabeth Boersma</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Formerly the Ru Paré Primary School, the Ru Paré Community Center has become the hope for the neighborhood of Slotervaart which was once plagued with many social problems. BETA, which is an Amsterdam-based office for architecture, urban-design, and research, partnered with Elisabeth Boersma to transform the building to house everything the community needs while also feeling like one's living room. The community center and former schools' namesake, Ru Paré, was an "iconic resistance hero," a painter, and a fighter. She saved the lives of 52 Jewish children during World War II. The Community Center website states, "For us, she is a living example of self-evident commitment and active citizenship. A source of inspiration not to give up when it comes to solidarity and to continue to look out for the most vulnerable in society."</div>]]></description>
