scots Jews: Identity, Belonging and future

Photographs By Judah Passow

In a year-long endeavor, Judah Passow captured portraits of Scotland's Jewish community reflecting the beginning of the 21st century. The community maintained traditions while immersing itself in new ones. In this land, Jews found a new home where they could flourish and contribute to various fields. This exhibition, featuring 80 black and white photographs, celebrates the complexity and diversity of such a community.

On view in the Spiegel Galleries (3rd Floor) from January 26 to March 19.

This exhibit is co-sponsored by Tartan Arts and Doretta and Jona Goldrich Family Foundation.

Photographic Exhibit by Mary Leipziger

The Photographs see their people in their spaces, already, but with the assurances that realism always shows you what you haven't seen yet, the connections, colors, the geometries suggested by human form and direction, the hidden hand as it were, usually demeaning, and not signifying like a subject engaged and exposed, and both the photographer and the subject fully enjoying the surprise of human contact.

On view at the Artists' Staircase.
