Lilli Gettinger: Memory Transformed. The horrific experiences of World War II concentration camps and both physical and emotional escape are evoked in pastel drawings and polychrome relief sculptures in this exhibition. It is the first exhibit of the late Princeton area resident's work in over a decade. Often compared to that of German Expressionist Max Beckman, Gettinger's works allude to literature, music and the Bible, and reflect the chill atmosphere of the Nazi era without depicting specific events.
