Jewish Studies Today: New Episode with Professor Anna-Carolin Augustin

News

Whether they are ritual objects, works of art, or part of a collection, objects carry stories within them—stories of art, memory, loss, and responsibility. Our guest on the podcast is Prof. Dr. Anna-Carolin Augustin, who has been a professor of Jewish art at the College of Jewish Studies since this winter semester. She discusses what defines Jewish art, why provenance research and restitution are so important—and what surprising stories a unicorn can tell in Jewish art.

An episode about art that is more than just art: about female collectors, looted objects, the “afterlife” of objects, and the question of who they belong to today.
