Nikolay Vladislavovich Bessonov was born in 1962 in Moscow. He has a higher art education (MVHPU). Bessonov painted wonderful, romantic paintings of Roma (Gypsies). Roma in art is a different story altogether, a subject we hope to take up later. Another line of his paintings was for a book about Medieval witch persecution, with gruesome pictures of mostly beautiful women coming into trouble. The authors came into contact with Bessonov in connection with an exhibition of Roma Art and Culture in 1997 in Denmark. Please accept this little booklet for what it is and with all its limitations. We have long wanted to do it for obvious reasons as Bessonov was very talented artist and a great friend of Roma. The booklet is produced from the images we got from him in curating the exhibition. We have some more images in a box somewhere in storage, so this booklet may see a second edition.

Nikolay Bessonov Peintre

Nikolay Vladislavovich Bessonov est né en 1962 à Moscou et décédé en 2013. Il a une formation supérieure en art (MVHPU). Bessonov a peint de magnifiques peintures romantiques de Roms (Tsiganes). Les Roms dans l art, c est une toute autre histoire, un sujet que nous espérons aborder plus tard. Une autre ligne de ses peintures était destinée à un livre sur la persécution des sorcières médiévales, avec des images horribles de femmes, pour la plupart belles, en difficulté. Les auteurs sont entrés en contact avec Bessonov à l'occasion d'une exposition « Art et culture roms » en 1997 au Danemark. Veuillez accepter ce petit livret tel qu'il est et avec toutes ses limites. Nous voulions le faire depuis longtemps pour des raisons évidentes, car Bessonov était un artiste très talentueux et un grand ami de Roma. Le livret est réalisé à partir des images que nous avons obtenues de lui lors du commissariat de l'exposition. Nous avons quelques images supplémentaires dans une boîte quelque part dans le stockage, ce livret pourrait donc connaître une deuxième édition.

Disputed Memory

The world wars, genocides and extremist ideologies of the 20th century are remembered very differently across Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe, resulting sometimes in fierce memory disputes. This book investigates the complexity and contention of the layers of memory of the troubled 20th century in the region. Written by an international group of scholars from a diversity of disciplines, the chapters approach memory disputes in methodologically innovative ways, studying representations and negotiations of disputed pasts in different media, including monuments, museum exhibitions, individual and political discourse and electronic social media. Analyzing memory disputes in various local, national and transnational contexts, the chapters demonstrate the political power and social impact of painful and disputed memories. The book brings new insights into current memory disputes in Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe. It contributes to the understanding of processes of memory transmission and negotiation across borders and cultures in Europe, emphasizing the interconnectedness of memory with emotions, mediation and politics.

The Nazi Genocide of the Roma

Using the framework of genocide, this volume analyzes the patterns of persecution of the Roma in Nazi-dominated Europe. Detailed case studies of France, Austria, Romania, Croatia, Ukraine, and Russia generate a critical mass of evidence that indicates criminal intent on the part of the Nazi regime to destroy the Roma as a distinct group. Other chapters examine the failure of the West German State to deliver justice, the Romani collective memory of the genocide, and the current political and historical debates. As this revealing volume shows, however inconsistent or geographically limited, over time, the mass murder acquired a systematic character and came to include ever larger segments of the Romani population regardless of the social status of individual members of the community.
