Jewish Tradition teaches that there are 70 ways to study Torah. Art is an important one of them. Images add rich interpretations to texts and connect us to important historical places, events, personalities, Israel, and holiday celebrations. Jews have simultaneously assimilated and remained separate from the majority cultures in which they lived. Their artwork reflects this phenomenon. In this interactive power-point presentation, works in all media by world-class artists will be shown. A series of open-ended questions will be raised. While there are no right or wrong answers, serious discussion bubbles to the surface. It is also a chance to enjoy some great art and to expand your own definition of Jewish art. This lecture is also available virtually. This lecture takes place 3:00pm - 4:30pm.
