An Australian woman has posted a video of her family singing and dancing along to the Gloria Gaynor hit 'I Will Survive' while on a trip to the Auschwitz death camp in Poland.
Jane Korman, who is Jewish, posted the video of her 89-year-old father Adolk - who survived the Holocaust - and her three children dancing to the hit inside the infamous extermination centre where as many as 1.1million people were killed during World War Two.
At one point, her father is seen wearing a t-shirt which 'I will survive' written across its front.
Mrs Korman has defended herself against claims of tastelessness and said the recording was 'a celebration of life and survival'.
She said: 'I wanted to make artwork that creates a fresh interpretation of historical memory.'
The video, posted on YouTube, showed the Korman family dancing in front of the Auschwitz sign 'Arbeit Macht Frei' - Work Sets Your Free - a Polish synagogue, the German concentration camp at Dachau, the Czech concentration camp at Theresienstadt and a memorial in Lodz, Poland, to victims of the Nazi ghetto.
But the recording has sparked anger among many of those who survived the horrors of the camp and neo-Nazi groups have posted it on their websites.
