About

OUR AIM

We support artists who create work around the many ways we may feel both divided and united in this world. The Foundation’s philosophy is to promote the belief that intolerance repeats itself. By producing art that people engage with, think about and process, collectively we aim to explore this difficult subject together.

From racism, ageism and ableism, to division, migration, and separation. The ways we consume, the ways we react, engage with others and our environment; these are just some of the many themes we encourage our audience to process and reflect on.

HOW WE STARTED

The Responsa Foundation was established by artist Barbara Greisman in 2019.
Her video, The 14th Room, is on permanent display in The Wiener Holocaust Library. Barbara’s latest work onemantelpiece.com is an online art installation representing her thoughts on themes concerning home, the everyday and art itself.
