Referring to Volkswagen's shameful role in Nazi Germany, he shows an oppressive side of this place, and tells about the levers of power which penetrate the reality and determine our everyday life.

Jakubowicz designed a postcard displaying a photo of the synagogue with a Hebrew sign meaning “swimming-pool” on one side, and a photograph of boys swimming in the pool on the other.

Jakubowicz emphasizes the importance of historical sense as well as of visual awareness, with either one's increase being made possible through art, which also enables spreading of knowledge, beyond the control of the authorities.
