The Holocaust and the Book of Fire by Murray Zimiles opens to the public on September 2, 2017 and is on display at The Florida Holocaust Museum through December 31, 2017. 

The paintings, drawings, prints, and artists’ books by Murray Zimiles are graphic statements meant to engage and propel the viewer into a whirlwind of fire and devastation.  In these powerful works, Zimiles deals with issues like the absence of God during the Holocaust and the absence of civilization.  Zimiles is the stepson of Holocaust Survivor and felt obligated as an artist to deal with the subject.
