You don’t have to do it alone.

Together, you’ll explore ways to rediscover joy and rekindle your creative passion in honor of Hanukkah, so that you can step into Hanukkah and the winter season with a renewed sense of inner light.

Portraits by Eugene Zak (1884-1926

Eugeniusz Zak was born to an assimilated Jewish family in what is now Belarus. Zak’s father died in 1892 + his mother moved to Warsaw with her 8 year old son. At 16 he moved to Paris + there participated in the creation of the group Rytm, formed by artists of the Polish avant-garde. His career ended suddenly when he died of a heart attack at 41.

Galerie Zak was run by the artist's widow, Jadwiga. It had a reputation as one of the most interesting galleries on the left bank, sponsering shows of Polish + Jewish artists including Kandinsky's 1st Parisian one-man show. Galerie Zak was looted + liquidated by French collaborators + Jadwiga + her son were murdered in Auschwitz by the Nazis. Many of the looted artworks are still missing.

You're invited to join the The Spinoza Havurah for an Arts Farbregen (led by myself) this Saturday at 10 am Eastern/3 pm UK.

(Registration link below)

The focus of our discussion for the farbregen will be some works of visual art, with each work of art being using as a spark for conversation, but we will also close our time for our humanistic Kaddish, as well as kiddush and Ha'motzi.

We will also have an optional arts activity that participants are welcome to engage in during our discussion time. If you want to participate, all you will need is some paper and your favorite drawing tools (pencils, colored pencils, ink pen, markers, etc.)

official museum photos, closed and opened side profile views of the silver fish-form spice container  “In the Jewish tradition, beautifully crafted spice containers, full of fragrant scents such as cloves, cinnamon, or lavender, are used for the concluding ritual of the Sabbath. The spice container would be passed among the participants to inhale the aroma and animate the spirit. The spice container, known in Hebrew as Besamim, is part of the evening ritual along with a cup of wine and braided candle. This distinctive spice container is in the shape of a three-dimensional fish, whose hinged head lifts to reveal the Ten Commandments designated by Hebrew letters. While this fish form is typically found in the Jewish communities of Austria, Poland, Russia, and Germany, other spice container shapes include bell towers and blossoming flowers.

I just made this locket with a tiny piece of a Ham@s grenade that exploded on Oct 7th and which was stuck in a chair, which my Dad's student used for a design project at Sapir university, after her house was damaged by the terror attack. My parents and her survived, I made this for her today in kibbutz Gevim, with a Magen David and Amethyst gemstones because in Hebrew Amethyst is called Achlama, meaning, the "healing" gemstone. I think of it as a symbol of protection and survival, with a wish of healing for all of our survivors.
