Memorials hold a special position in the cultural memory of communities, and collective consciousness of communities, cities, and countries. In Memory Of presents an extraordinary and moving collection of more than 60 exceptional structures commemorating some of the most destructive events of the 20th and 21st centuries, including war, genocide, terrorism, famine, and slavery from around the world.
The volume highlights memorials built since 1982, featuring important works from Berlin to Washington, D.C., from Montgomery, Alabama to Santiago, Chile, all urging us never to forget.
Thoughtful essays on the subjects of hope, strength, grief, loss, and fear help to contextualize the projects and address the emotional aspects of memorialization. The book also includes a moving foreword by Sir David Adjaye
