Art Gallery Committee
The Art Gallery Committee enthusiastically conceives, curates, and installs exhibitions that reflect the active participation of congregants in all areas of synagogue life at Or Zarua. These exhibitions transform the social hall from a room with plain walls into an attractive, informative, and colorful gallery. In this, Or Zarua is exceptional, since few synagogues display changing exhibitions and even fewer have congregants who research and organize those exhibitions.
The Art Gallery Committee selects shows that either have Jewish content or that highlight the work of the Or Zarua community. Past exhibitions have included:
-
Jews Around the World: The Photographs of Zion Ozeri (Or Zarua congregant)
-
Five Books of Moses: Micro-calligraphy by Leon Azoulay of Safad
-
Our Precious Legacies: Jewish Heirlooms from Congregants and their Stories
-
Sowing Light: 200 Small Works by Congregants on the Subject of Light
-
In the Beginning: A Series of Ten Prints Inspired by the "Creation" by Rudi Wolff (special friend of Or Zarua)
-
The Colorful Hand-Made Quilts of Lorraine Shapiro (Or Zarua congregant)
-
Creating Sacred Space: Anniversary Exhibition Documenting the Building of Or Zarua
-
From Yankel to Yankee: The Americanization of Jews Reflected in Yiddish Theater and Popular Music (also displayed at Temple Beth El in Fairfield, Connecticut)
-
From Jaffa to Java: Ten Stories of Economic and Cultural Achievement in Israel
The Art Gallery Committee welcomes new members. Please contact Bobbi Coller if you would like to be part of the planning and execution of our next exhibition.
