Later, Josef was transferred to Gross-Rosen concentration camp and then to Schindler's camp where he stayed until the end of the war, while Rebecca was sent to Auschwitz. Both survived and after the war, Josef reunited with his wife, finished his Art degree in Krakow, then in 1950, they immigrated to Israel, where Joseph worked as a graphic artist at the Brandwein Institute in Haifa and for the government of Israel.
