Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial

There's many things to look at at the Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial. There are plaques strewn about the space and there are panoramic walls as well. A street also runs through the memorial and there are benches for you to sit on. The memorial is comprised of three sections with a statue of Anne Frank residing in one of them. Podiums are also found at this memorial as well as a water feature. 

When it comes to representation, this memorial utilizes quite a few different forms. Sculpture is displayed at the Anne Frank Human Rights Memorial as the statue of Anne Frank. There's also audio components as well as text used throughout the memorial. Photographs are another kind of representation used in this space. 

Some visual elements that dominate the memorial are repetition, shape, size, and balance. 

This memorial is site-specific in that it was constructed in the area it resides in because of its ease of access. The people who made this memorial wanted it to be easy to see. 

The Idaho Human Rights Education Center designed and created this memorial and many, many people funded the memorial. 

The text/word elements of the memorial functioned as a way to give information to the viewers. 

I think the intended meaning and function of the memorial is to educate. They're trying to "inspire to contemplate the moral implications of our civic responsibilities." 

I think the memorial is pretty successful. The facts they provide are interesting enough to make you stay awhile and learn something.
