Réalisé et assemblé par Elias Suraqui (1893-1977), architecte et philanthrope juif algérien installé au Maroc, l’album témoigne des difficultés systémiques endurées par les personnes photographiées, notamment des conséquences matérielles de l’oppression coloniale et antisémite. 

S’appuyant sur des documents issus du fonds Jean-Louis Cohen de la Collection du CCA, Huet considère cet album comme le témoignage visuel le plus complet de la vie et de l’architecture dans le quartier juif de Casablanca durant les années 1940.

Cet événement est gratuit et ouvert au public, mais le nombre de places étant limité, l’inscription est obligatoire. L’entrée au musée est incluse dans l’inscription.

This seminar focuses on the photographic album titled Le “Mellah” (taudis juif) à Casablanca en 1947. Taken and assembled by Elias Suraqui (1893–1977), an Algerian Jewish architect and philanthropist based in Morocco, the album bears witness to the systemic hardship endured by those it depicts, including the material consequences of colonial and antisemitic oppression. 

Drawing on evidence from the Jean-Louis Cohen fonds in the CCA Collection, Huet positions the album as the most substantial visual testimonies to life and architecture in Casablanca’s Jewish quarter in the 1940s.

This event is free and open to the public, but space is limited, so registration is required. Admission to the museum is included with your registration.
