Table of contents: title: 1; title: Press Release Anne Frank Photo Book; title: INTRODUCTION; title: Anne Frank is world famous. Millions of people from all over the world have read her diary. The Anne Frank Foundation; title: promotes Anne Frank and her mental legacy. The travelling exhibition ‘Anne Frank — A History for Today’ is by far the; title: most visited Dutch exhibition in the world. My interest in the persecution of the Jews in general — and that of Anne; title: Frank in particular — has gradually developed. In 1994-1996, I took part in volunteer projects in the former concentration; title: camps — Sachsenhausen and Dachau — in Germany. During these activities, I was deeply afflicted by the contrast; title: between the present silence in the former concentration camps and the past suffering of the prisoners who had been; title: held captive here during the war. What afflicted me more than anything, however, was the cruelty of the Nazi regime; title: — and the extent of that cruelty. In particular, I found one of the most shocking things as the sight of lampshades made; title: from human skin; understandably, a number of the younger participants did not handle this sight too well. In 2001,; title: I visited the Annex for the first time. The Annex leaves a deep impression on many people, and I was no exception.; title: I could feel the tensions of the persons in hiding, and I realised that Anne had become caught in the Nazis’ web: she had; title: been torn away from her everyday world; her life was broken before it could blossom. Anne was interested in culture,; title: religion and science, and she had a keen interest in society at large, being very concerned about everybody’s ups and; title: downs, and trials of life; that was why I thought it was so dismal that she had been killed — and only owing to the fact; title: that she was a Jew. The need in me arose to portray the life of Anne Frank — not by means of a biography or a book; title: with old pictures — many of which have been published many times before — but in a different light. Ultimately, I wanted; title: to discover whether there are still remnants of her past life and surroundings lingering in the present. As a historic and; title: photographer, I enjoy combining history and photography. As such, I firstly immersed myself in literature about, and by,; title: Anne Frank. I considered this to be absolutely fundamental so that I could purposively take current pictures of her; title: surroundings. In 2008-2009, I made a photo-report about the residences of Anne Frank (1929-1945). I visited her home; title: addresses in Frankfurt am Main, Aachen, the Merwedeplein in Amsterdam, her place of hiding in the Annex in; title: Amsterdam, and the concentration camps of Westerbork, Auschwitz-Birkenau and Bergen-Belsen, where she was; title: imprisoned. I have provided the pictures of short notes explaining the connection with Anne Frank; my recent pictures; title: are an important addition to the many old pictures of Anne Frank. The emptiness left behind by Anne Frank becomes; title: evident when I place a recent picture next to an old picture which depicts her, taken from the same angle. When making; title: the pictures, I took special notice of interesting details and the historical character of the subject; after all, the pictures; title: are the result of personal experiences, which were often quite intense. My pictures show that the traces of her; title: residences are still visible in the (rural) landscape. You can map out your own route along the places which are; title: reminiscent of Anne Frank. I got permission for visiting and taking pictures of the (inside) locations from the; title: organisations concerned. My visits to those locations were carried out respectfully whilst actively taking into; title: consideration the applicable rules of the locations. I hope that my picture book inspires the reader and viewer to delve; title: deeper into the history of the Holocaust and Anne Frank, and that it contributes to the mutual tolerance and; title: understanding between people and cultures.; title: 2 Project Summary; title: Anne Frank: Anne Frank 80 Years Photographic Impressions; title: A Memorial Tour in Current Images Frankfurt am Main, Aachen, Amsterdam,; title: Camp Westerbork, Auschwitz-Birkenau, Bergen-Belsen; title: Authored by Ronald Wilfred Jansen, Translated by Patty Snijders; title: List Price: $35.00; title: 8" x 10" (20.32 x 25.4 cm); title: Full Color on White paper; title: 154 pages; title: ISBN-13: 978-1466281936 (CreateSpace-Assigned); title: ISBN-10: 1466281936; title: BISAC: Photography / Photoessays & Documentaries; title: 3 Project Summary; title: Anne Frank: A Memorial Tour In Current Images FRANKFURT AM MAIN, AACHEN,; title: AMSTERDAM, CAMP WESTERBORK, AUSCHWITZ-BIRKENAU, BERGEN-BELSEN; title: Authored by Ronald Wilfred Jansen, Translated by Patty Snijders; title: List Price: $15.00; title: 8" x 10" (20.32 x 25.4 cm); title: Black & White Bleed on White paper; title: 154 pages; title: ISBN-13: 978-1463714345 (CreateSpace-Assigned); title: ISBN-10: 1463714343; title: BISAC: Photography / History; title: I WANT TO GO ON LIVING EVEN AFTER MY DEATH !
