Gare d’Osnabrück à Jérusalem

She travels to the site to approach a "truth" from which history books distance her. During this same period, Cécile Wajsbrot suggested an interview on Germany, German, "memory and its corollaries of oblivion" which resulted in a book, Une autobiographie allemande (Christian Bourgois, 2016). The writing of catastrophe is haunted by silence and fantasies, "a furious commotion of nameless pain". History cannot account for this commotion, says Cixous. It is up to literature to do so; it alone allows her to probe the depths lying beneath the paving stones of Osnabrück. Screening of Osna (30 min), directed for the exhibition by Raphaël Sigal and Jean-Baptiste Warluzel, followed by a discussion in the presence of Hélène Cixous (above) (subject to confirmation) and Cécile Wajsbrot (below), co-author of Une autobiographie allemande (Christian Bourgois, 2016). In conversation with Raphaël Sigal, exhibition curator.
