MALMO .- Roma artist Ceija Stojka (1933–2013) was born and raised in Styria in Austria, where her family made their living as traders. Following Nazi Germany’s annexation of Austria in 1938, her family was persecuted, arrested, and sent to the concentration camps. Stojka was barely ten years old when she arrived at Auschwitz. She survived three concentration camps: Auschwitz-Birkenau, Ravensbrück, and Bergen-Belsen. Out of her entire family of about two hundred people, only six survived: herself, her mother, and four of her siblings.
