Dostoyevsky once said that only Beauty brought Redemption and Solace in the face of Pain."Beauty will save the world", because "Beauty is mysterious as well as terrible. God and devil are fighting there, and the battlefield is the heart of man...". It was in the frozen extermination desert Machine of Auschwitz Birkenau that the Czechoslovakian artist Dina Babbitt drafted for the “Death Angel”, SS Chef “Artz” Dr. Joseph Mengele, these transcendent human expressions of gypsy children in the form of a fairy tale that teaches us that, yes, there is, indeed, an Absolute Evil which wins in the end, when we do not have the care, vigilance and strength to exterminate it at its source before it is too late, to hang all of them before they set the world on fire, because God has taken vacations long before the cosmic inflation began its inexorable in course in the void of Nothing. Auschwitz is a black hole in the human history. Everything that circulates around its Event Horizon becomes useless words. But the human look on those magnificent paintings, its dignity is an expression that life and justice may win in the end. Babbitt died without ever recovering her paintings just because some very stupid humans, who learned NOTHING from the history, claimed they were Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and State Museum´s "property". Nobody owns the memory of anyone except the INDIVIDUAL himself and the real Auschwitz museum is in the heart of each of us, because only Remembering brings redemption. Rest in piece, Babbitt, your name is burned in fire in The Book of Life.
