Emmanuil Noevich Yevzerikhin was one of the masters of soviet photography.
The exhibition at the Jewish Museum and Tolerance Centre consisted of two parts; lesser known photographs taken in 1957, 1960 and 1965 in Moscow\u2019s Choral Synagogue, and Yevzerikhin\u2019s famous works, known to many who lived in Soviet Moscow.
The exhibition was located in a side passage of the museum. The aim was to intrigue and lure visitors away from the main exhibition
In order to fit all the photographs within a relatively short and narrow passage, they were hung sideways in a tight row, using a system of counterweights. The visitor had to pull a frame down in order to see a photograph, as if extracting a desired article from a suspended archive. \u2018Hiding\u2019 the photographs from full view generated curiosity and desire to uncover and study each element in more detail.<\/p>
