" Charlotte Salomon's (1917-43) fantastical autobiography, Life? Or Theatre?, consists of 769 sequenced gouache paintings, through which the artist imagined the circumstances of the eight suicides and family, all but one of them women. But Salomon's focus on suicide was not merely a familial idiosyncrasy. Nothing Happened argues that the social history of early twentieth-century Germany has elided an important cultural and social phenomena and by not including the story of German Jewish women and suicide. This absence in social history mirrors an even larger In the intellectual history of deeply gendered suicide studies that have reproduced the notion of women side as a rarity in history." -- from the front fold of a panel blurb.
