  • Landscapes 20 January — 24 February 2018
    Avigdor Arikha Landscapes 20 January — 24 February 2018 Private View: Friday 19 January, 6-9pm Blain|Southern Potsdamer Straße 77–87 Avigdor Arikha, View from Rue de la Chaise, 2005 10785 Berlin Courtesy the Estate of Avigdor Arikha and Blain|Southern Blain|Southern presents Landscapes, a selection of landscape paintings and drawings by Avigdor Arikha (1929-2010), one of the great observational artists of the late twentieth century. The gallery now represents the Estate of Avigdor Arikha and Landscapes is the first exhibition of the artist’s work. The exhibition is on view in the Long Gallery, beginning a new programme of simultaneous exhibitions at the Berlin gallery. While Avigdor Arikha is highly regarded for his interiors, still lifes and portraits, most of which he painted in his Paris studio, he also spent long periods in Israel and New York, and he never failed to take his pencil or brush along with him. Spending summers in Israel, he painted the warm walls, arid hills and desert vegetation, and during his frequent trips to New York City, the city’s rhythmic, rising grids became a new view to stimulate his eye and hand. His adopted hometown of Paris was his most frequent subject, from iconic Haussmann cityscapes, to seemingly overlooked patches of the city. Wherever he landed his eye, he found a subject, or a structure, worthy of a picture. Landscapes allows viewers to travel with the artist, and to see places and perspectives that were important throughout the artist’s life. Window frames inspired the artist wherever he travelled. In View from Rue de la Chaise (2005), the warm glow of the interior window frames are contrasted with the cool burst of green from the tree beyond.

  • Exhibiting Galicia: Problems of Interpretation and Other Reflections on the Permanent Exhibition at the Galicia Jewish Museum in Kraków
    SCRIPTA JUDAICA CRACOVIENSIA Vol. 18 (2020) pp. 105–126 doi: 10.4467/20843925SJ.20.008.13876 www.ejournals.eu/Scripta-Judaica-Cracoviensia Exhibiting Galicia: Problems of Interpretation and Other Reflections on the Permanent Exhibition at the Galicia Jewish Museum in Kraków Jonathan Webber (Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland) e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: Galicia Jewish Museum in Kraków, museum, exhibition, Holocaust, photography Abstract: The purpose of this article is to offer a critical comment on the permanent exhibition of the Galicia Jewish Museum in Kraków. The exhibition is innovative in museological terms. It is not about the Jewish history of Galicia, nor is it arranged using conventional chronology, nor is it comprehensive. Rather it is divided into five sections, based on a five-part set of ideas, simple ideas intended to help visitors make sense of the complex realities surrounding the present-day situation of the Jewish heritage seventy-five years after the Holocaust. Let me now briefly outline how these five ideas are represented museologically, the five sections in which the exhibition is organized. The opening section directly presents the popular Jewish stereotype that post-Holocaust Poland is nothing but a vast Jewish graveyard. So this section of the exhibition consists entirely of the raw, shocking sight of desolation – for example, photos of ruined synagogues or ruined Jewish cemeteries. The 23 photos on show in this section include the appalling condition of the synagogue in Stary Dzików (a small town near the Ukrainian border) as it looked in the 1990s and of the devastated Jewish cemetery in Czarny Dunajec (a small town near the Slovak border) at that time.
