Fotokopie van de voorzijde van een ontslagbriefje uit concentratiekamp Buchenwald Possibly 1941

This anonymous photo-copy of a document is an example of a form of art known as **Conceptual Art**, where the content of the piece is the primary focus, rather than its aesthetic qualities. This document, dated October 8, 1941, is an official release form for a prisoner named Willem Drees, who was released from Buchenwald, a German concentration camp, to the Hague. The document provides details about the prisoner's identity, the date of his release, and the agency that requested his release. This artwork, housed at the Rijksmuseum, gives viewers insight into the realities of Nazi Germany's concentration camps and offers a somber reminder of the human cost of the Holocaust.
