  • Architect Joseph Klarwein Was the Winner of the 1957 Contest for Planning the Knesset Building on Givat Ram
    Handout 1 Knesset Architect Joseph Klarwein was the winner of the 1957 contest for planning the Knesset building on Givat Ram. His initial proposal presented at the contest was ultimately very different than the building that was inaugurated on August 30th 1966. In fact, it was influenced by different architects that were involved in different parts of the planning and construction throughout its nine years, and among them were architect Dov Carmi and his son Ram. In textbooks written on the Knesset building, it is claimed that the planners intended to build a construction similar to the Greek Acropolis. Those who worked on the building programs before the contest had very little idea on how they wanted the building to look, and the result – an architectural mixture – surprisingly resembled the building of the United States’ embassy in Athens. The embassy was designed by the renowned Bauhaus architect Walter Gropius, which was later considered as a specimen of the “International Style.” Klarwein’s original model was comprised of a rectangular construction with 20 columns on its front and back, 15 columns on each side, and two internal yards on the eastern and western sides of the plenum hall found at the center of the building. The entrance to the building was to be on its northern front. The constructed building was square, with 10 columns on all sides, and with no internal yards; the plenum is not at its center, but on its eastern part; and west to the plenum hall there is a reception hall. This hall is named “Chagall State Hall,” as it is decorated with art created by the Russian-born Jewish artist, Marc Chagall.

Following the decision by the CHE, the Minister of Education appointed the following members of the evaluation commit- tee: - Professor Joseph Cappella, University of Pennsylvania (Chair) - Professor emerita Hanna Adoni, Hebrew University (Sapir College and Netanya College) - Professor Wolfgang Donsbach, University of Dresden - Professor Mordechai Kremnitzer, Hebrew University - Professor Karen Ross, University of Liverpool (College of Management, Tel Aviv University, Haifa University, and Ben-Gurion University) - Professor Esther Thorson, University of Missouri (College of Management, Tel Aviv University, Haifa University, and Ben-Gurion University) Ms. Michal Kabatznik coordinated the committee The committee’s work in the first phase suffered from two cancellations by previous members of the committee, one coming in shortly before the committee’s work began. This, as well as time constraints on the side of the two Israeli members, led to the fact that at least in the be- ginning the committee lacked the breadth of perspectives and the distribution of labor that is required for such an important task. The committee’s work also was affected by the military situation in Israel and the Gaza strip that escalated shortly before the first field trip.

  • ICJW Newsletter.Indd
    April 2009 Nissan 5769 Newsletter ICJW: Shaked 363, Zur Hadassah, Israel 99875 Website: www.icjw.org E-mail: [email protected] Tel/Fax: 972-2-533 6955 Editorial Committee: Aviva Kohlmann, Judy Telman Dear Friends, This Newsletter is primarily devoted to the ideas that we will be exploring at ICJW’s Herczeg Jerusalem Seminar for Jewish Education in May, which is entitled “Time and Place: Profound Philosophical Concepts in Jewish Thought”. These concepts are basic to understanding the Jewish perspective on many aspects of Jewish philosophy and practice, and this Seminar will provide the participants with a time and place to immerse themselves in learning more about them. These keys will also help stretch our minds and expand our knowledge—fulfilling the goals and purposes of the Seminar since its inception. While learning is a matter for personal growth, the opportunity we have at the Seminar to participate in a collective study experience is what makes it one of the major events in the ICJW calendar. We have every reason to expect that this Seminar will be among the best. I would like to thank all who have played a part in organizing the Herczeg Jerusalem Seminar and, above all, Rena Cohen, who suggested the topic and has invested much effort to translate it into an actual program. As we approach the holiday of Pesach and the sense of renewal it brings, may what we learn at the Seminar be a catalyst for personal enrichment and a collective blossoming—in all respects. Looking forward to meeting you in Jerusalem, Leah Aharonov President, ICJW Concepts of Time and Place in Jewish Thought Where are you now? What time is it? When and where shall we meet? How much time do we have? These are some of the very basic questions that we ask and are asked daily, because dealing with time and place is an integral part of our lives.
