Just back from a short break in Bologna, where I have been doing a lot of street photography. So I thought I would start with a non-street shot.

Designed by SET Architects and built in less than two months, the Bologna Shoah Memorial is a recognizable landmark of great emotional power.

It is located at the intersection of Via dé Carracci and Ponte Matteotti, a city square encompassed by the newly installed high-speed train station of Bologna. This area is primed to become the new connective pole of the city. As such, the monument attracts passers-by, inviting them to reflect on the tragedy of the Holocaust.
