  • Radicant Israeli Art: from Past to Future
    Article Radicant Israeli Art: From Past to Future Ori Z. Soltes Center for Jewish Civilization, Georgetown University, Washington, DC 20057, USA; [email protected] Received: 4 November 2019; Accepted: 10 January 2020; Published: 6 February 2020 Abstract: Mieke Bal’s concept of “migratory aesthetics” and the observation by Saloni Mathur and Anne Ring Peterson that “traditional notions of location, origin and authenticity seem obsolete and in urgent need of reconsideration” perfectly encompass the phrase “Jewish art”, and within that difficult‐to‐define subject, Israeli art (which, among other things, is not always “Jewish”). As Hava Aldouby has noted, Israeli art presents a unique inflection of the global condition of mobility— which in fact contributes to the problem of easily defining the category of “Israeli art”. Nothing could be more appropriate to the discussion of Israeli art, or to the larger definitional problem of “Jewish art” than to explore it through Nicolas Bourriaud’s botanical metaphor of the “radicant”, and thus the notion of “radicant art”. The important distinction that Bourriaud offers between radical and radicant plants—whereby the former type depends upon a central root, deep‐seated in a single nourishing soil site, whereas the latter is an “organism that grows its roots and adds new ones as it advances…” with “…a multitude of simultaneous or successive enrootings”—is a condition that may be understood for both Israeli and Jewish art, past and present: Aldouby’s notion that the image of the Wandering Jew offers the archetypal radicant, informs both the “altermodernity” concept and Israeli art. Keywords: Arab; Bezalel; diaspora; diverse/diversity; Jerusalem Biennale; Jewish art; Palestinian; radicant; Schatz 1.

  • The Place of Diasporic Imagery in the Canon of Israeli National Art
    arts Article The National, the Diasporic, and the Canonical: The Place of Diasporic Imagery in the Canon of Israeli National Art Noa Avron Barak Department of Arts, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheba 8499000, Israel; [email protected] Received: 9 January 2020; Accepted: 15 March 2020; Published: 26 March 2020 Abstract: This article explores Jerusalem-based art practice from the 1930s to the 1960s, focusing particularly on the German immigrant artists that dominated this field in that period. I describe the distinct aesthetics of this art and explain its role in the Zionist nation-building project. Although Jerusalem’s art scene participated significantly in creating a Jewish–Israeli national identity, it has been accorded little or no place in the canon of national art. Adopting a historiographic approach, I focus on the artist Mordecai Ardon and the activities of the New Bezalel School and the Jerusalem Artists Society. Examining texts and artworks associated with these institutions through the prism of migratory aesthetics, I claim that the art made by Jerusalem’s artists was rooted in their diasporic identities as East or Central European Jews, some German-born, others having settled in Germany as children or young adults. These diasporic identities were formed through their everyday lives as members of a Jewish diaspora in a host country—whether that be the Russian Empire, Poland, or Germany. Under their arrival in Palestine, however, the diasporic Jewish identities of these immigrants (many of whom were not initially Zionists) clashed with the Zionist–Jewish identity that was hegemonic in the nascent field of Israeli art.

Paintings and sculpture by School of Paris artists will be offered for sale including a selection of works on paper by Marc Chagall. The artist’s nostalgic Couple sur le village (estimate: US$300,000-400,000) is a colourful gouache depicting many of the elements from Chagall’s rich pictorial language including the images of the lovers, the artist by his easel, farm animals and the Shtetel, ever present in the background. A further gouache by Chagall, Le fiancé Volant of 1966 (estimate: US$100,000-150,000), is a colourful sheet that also returns to many of Chagall’s favourite characters. Three works on paper by the artist addressing Biblical subjects will also be offered.

  • David Ohana Articles Fixed
    A MEDITERRANEAN BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER CULTURAL IDEAS ON HOW TO RECONCILE ISRAEL WITH ITS NEIGHBOURS AND WITH EUROPE David Ohana The Mediterranean Sea links together three continents, three religions, and thousands of years of civilization, and has thus been a channel of mutual influences and cultural exchanges. These processes have formed the destiny of large Jewish communities. The historian Joshua Prawer drew attention to an interesting fact: "It should be pointed out that, without any causal relationship, the period of the closure of the Med- iterranean was—in relationships, in the exchange of ideas and in ." trade—the period of the greatness of Judaism. (Prawer, 1990: 9). According to the historian Shlomo Dov Goitein, the Jews lived along the coasts of dre Mediterranean, and were an open, mobile people that were not closed up in their own world but, in the countries where they lived, inherited the culture of Greece and Rome and adapted it to Islamic culture. In his monumental live-volume work A Mediterranean Society, Goitein described a Jewish society of the Middle Ages that lived within the framework of Mediterranean geography and culture (Goitein, 1967-1988). Goitein, as the first Hebrew University lecturer in Islamic studies, focused in his pioneering work on early Arab literature and society, and only later in his life began to concern himself with the medieval Jewish communities. His original project was to investigate the trade with the Indian Ocean, but his academic starting-point was the inves- tigation of the Cairo genizalr. "In the summer of 1958 I abandoned India and turned towards the Mediterranean."' (Lassner, 2005: 23) In the documents of the genizah he examined, there was no special term for the ''Mediterranean Sea", and the Arabs generally called it "the Sea of the Romans", 'The Sea", or 'The Salt Sea".
