Listed here is a SIGNED softcover exhibition catalog IN MEMORIAM : To Vilnius and Kaunas Ghetto Prisoners (London : White Space Gallery, 2016). First edition, one of 1600 copies published. 112pp. Color and b&w photographic reproductions. SIGNED by photographer Antanas Sutkus on the title page. This exhibition catalog was published on the occasion of the exhibition "In Memoriam. To Kaunas and Vilnius Jewish Ghetto Survivors." contains newly commissioned essays by Leonidas Donskis and Kamile Rupeikaite, and interviews with last living survivors of Kaunas Ghetto. Antanas Sutkus, a master of art photography, born 1939, learned about the mass killing of Jews by Nazis during WWII from his grandparents. Being a Lithuanian himself, he intuitively felt bitterly opposed to the humiliation of man and the mass destruction of human life in his homeland. In 1988 he began to photograph the Kaunas Jews who had escaped death in concentration camps. Gradually personal relationships were formed. Bookleggers is Miami's first and only free book store.
