A guidebook to the most current trends in contemporary Jewish art
and design, Reinventing Ritual provides an unprecedented look at
the work and thought of contemporary artists as they respond to the
needs and practices of traditional culture. Beautifully illustrated
with new art from Israel, Europe, and the Americas, this
publication features both traditional and avant-garde sculpture,
textiles, architecture, metalwork, and ceramics by forty leading
artists. Author Daniel Belasco surveys current trends in Jewish
ritual art and the influences of feminism, environmentalism,
multiculturalism, and new media; Julie Lasky provides a
groundbreaking discussion of the role of recycling and social
consciousness in contemporary Jewish design; Danya Ruttenberg, a
recently ordained rabbi, offers a lively perspective on the
constantly evolving Jewish impulse "to concretize the encounter
with the Divine"; Arnold M. Eisen writes an absorbing and personal
commentary on the role of ritual in Jewish life today; and Tamar
Rubin contributes an illustrated timeline covering key Jewish
cultural and historical events from 1994 to 2008. Published in
association with The Jewish Museum Exhibition Schedule: The Jewish
Museum, New York (September 13, 2009-February 7, 2010) Contemporary
Jewish Museum, San Francisco (April 22 - September 28, 2010)
