In his three works Psalm 68, Mortality and Mercy/Exodus I and Exodus II,
Hagen Klennert refers to Gisa Hausmann's lithograph From a Letter by
Armin T. Wegner to Adolf Hi**er.
Armin T. Wegner (1886–1978) had already responded to the beginning of systematic persecution of Jews in the Third Reich in an open letter to Hi**er in April 1933. In this long letter, he emphatically makes it clear that Jewish people and people of Jewish descent in Germany are an
integral part of the German people and that many of Germany's achievements were brought about by Germans of Jewish origin, meaning
that Germans are depriving themselves of a part of themselves by excluding and persecuting their Jewish fellow citizens.
