Event Details

Description

Moshe Gershuni (1936-2017), among the most significant Israeli artists, was born in Tel Aviv to Polish-Jewish parents. His passionate and deeply personal work reflects the challenges of Israeli life, often addressing grief and memory. Gershuni blends many cultural and historical references, including Jewish and Christian religious ideas and the Holocaust.

View “Kaddish”, a magnificent 1997 portfolio illustrating the homonymous poem written by the American Jewish beatnik poet Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) on the death of his mother. The portfolio includes 24 images screen-printed on goldleaf next to the original text with Hebrew translation by the eminent Israeli poet Natan Zach. Six beautiful large-scale prints created in 2000s with similar visual themes are also on view.

The complete “Kaddish” is on display at Congregation Mishkan Or and Gershuni’s independent works can be seen at the Federation’s Roe Green Gallery.
