Head Curator, Roslyn Sugarman, takes us behind the scenes for a special evening Curator's tour of Shaken to his Core: The Untold Story of Nolan’s Auschwitz.

Learn how this rare exhibition – uncovering 50 artworks by the iconic Sidney Nolan – was conceived, developed and curated for its Australian debut.

For 17 years, Roslyn has managed the Sydney Jewish Museum’s extensive collection of over 15,000 objects. She has curated several groundbreaking exhibitions at the Museum – from Serniki: Unearthing the Holocaust, to Dressing Sydney: The Jewish Fashion Story and Signs of Life: Letters of the Holocaust. With a strong reverence for objects from the Holocaust and Jewish life, Roslyn is committed to preserving history for future generations to connect with and learn from.
