April 23 & 24 —Eva and the Angel of Death Saturday, April 23 at Sundown Sunday, April 24, 2022 2pm Free and open to the public Additional public programs include a book talk and multiple screenings of the Density512-produced documentary Remembrance and Ritual: Reflections on Eva and the Angel of Death A new opera by Austin-based composer Thomas Yee and librettist Aiden Feltkamp, Eva and the Angel of Death portrays the true story of Eva Mozes Kor, a child survivor of the Holocaust and Josef Mengele’s medical experiments. Fifty years after her liberation, Kor returned to Auschwitz to announce her message of forgiveness, peace, hope, and healing. After Kor’s passing on an educational tour to Poland in 2019, we will continue her legacy through this communal artistic experience. In Kor’s own words from her 1995 Declaration of Amnesty, “No more wars, no more experiments without informed consent, no more gas chambers, no more bombs, no more hatred, no more killing, no more Auschwitzes.
