Raoul
Raoul Wallenberg Academy
2024


 Raoul is a small yet impactful exhibition tracing the life of Raoul Wallenberg, focusing on his journey from childhood to his heroic actions in Budapest and his mysterious disappearance. Held as a pop-up at the Swedish Holocaust Museum in Stockholm, it highlights his life, with a particular focus on his mission in Budapest during 1944-1945.

The exhibition delves into his formative years, relationships, the mission he undertook, and the lives he saved. It also features testimonies from those he rescued and explores various theories surrounding his disappearance in 1945.

The visual identity for Raoul was created with a deeply personal approach, incorporating original documents, handwritten notes, photographs, and family anecdotes—many of which have never been shown before. Blending historical typographic elements with modern design, the exhibition allows visitors to, at a personal level, understand the complexities of his life and the unbelievable mystery around his disappearance. Though small in size, the exhibition offers a profound and immersive experience.
