This project will consolidate IWM's collections relating to the Holocaust through collecting, copying and documenting the photographs that exist of the families of former Jewish and non-Jewish refugees and Holocaust survivors, and will produce a PhD which will reflect on these collections and determine new meanings from them. Yaffa Eliach's There once was a world, Noam Shenker's Reframing Holocaust Testimony and other works have addressed this kind of material to some degree, but there has yet to be an in-depth academic study based on the photographs of Holocaust survivors who made their home in the UK.The project would involve continuing an existing IWM initiative to collect the photographs of the pre-war lives of families whose possessions and/ or testimony have been given to IWM. The resulting collection would mean that the present project to create new Holocaust Galleries (due to open in 2020), the learning programmes that will support them and future interpretations of the Holocaust at IWM will be backed up by a high-quality, well-researched collection of images.Similar photographs can be seen in exhibitions across Europe, the US and Israel, and are increasingly being shown and interpreted on websites (Virtual Shtetl on the POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews website being a recent example). The IWM project would offer the opportunity for the student to connect with these other initiatives, and to import best practice to IWM, as well as adding to the sum of knowledge on this subject through our own webpages.Research areas might include: early twentieth century studio photography in Central and Eastern Europe, including families' preferences for particular activities to be recorded and how and whether this differed according to different occupations/ religious beliefs/ regions; a study of how photographs of families have been used in museums and other displays, including the thinking behind those displays and how they have been received; and an examination of the journeys which the photographs themselves took and how they have been viewed, discussed and treated by the families concerned.The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's Photographic Archive will be a source of advice and information, as will The Wiener Library, The National Holocaust Centre and Museum, Yad Vashem and the USC Shoah Foundation.

该项目将通过收集、复制和记录前犹太和非犹太难民及大屠杀幸存者家属的照片，巩固国际博物馆与大屠杀有关的藏品，并将产生一个博士学位，对这些藏品进行反思，并从中确定新的意义。Yaffa Eliach的《曾经有一个世界》，Noam Shenker的《重构大屠杀证词》和其他作品在一定程度上解决了这类材料，但尚未有基于在英国安家的大屠杀幸存者照片的深入学术研究。该项目将涉及继续国际管理研究所现有的一项倡议，收集已向国际管理研究所提供财产和/或证词的家庭战前生活的照片。由此产生的藏品将意味着，目前创建新大屠杀画廊的项目（将于2020年开放）、支持这些画廊的学习计划以及国际图库未来对大屠杀的解释将得到高质量、经过充分研究的图像收藏的支持。类似的照片可以在欧洲、美国和以色列的展览中看到，并且越来越多地在网站上展示和解释（POLIN波兰犹太人历史博物馆网站上的虚拟shtel是最近的一个例子）。IWM项目将为学生提供与这些其他倡议联系的机会，并将最佳实践引入IWM，并通过我们自己的网页增加这一主题的知识总和。研究领域可能包括：二十世纪早期中欧和东欧的工作室摄影，包括家庭对特定活动的偏好，以及这种偏好如何以及是否根据不同的职业/宗教信仰/地区而有所不同；一项关于家庭照片如何在博物馆和其他展览中使用的研究，包括这些展览背后的想法以及它们是如何被接受的；并审查了这些照片本身所拍摄的旅程，以及有关家庭如何看待、讨论和对待它们。美国大屠杀纪念博物馆的摄影档案将成为咨询和信息的来源，维也纳图书馆、国家大屠杀中心和博物馆、亚德瓦谢姆大屠杀纪念馆和南加州大学大屠杀基金会也将提供咨询和信息。
