Too Jewish or Not Jewish Enough
Displays of Jewish ritual objects in public, non-Jewish settings by Jews are a comparatively recent phenomenon. So too is the establishment of Jewish museums. This volume explores the origins of the Jewish Museum of New York and its evolution from collecting and displaying Jewish ritual objects, to Jewish art, to exhibiting avant-garde art devoid of Jewish content, created by non-Jews. Established within a rabbinic seminary, the museum’s formation and development reflect changes in Jewish society over the twentieth century as it grappled with choices between religion and secularism, particularism and universalism, and ethnic pride and assimilation.
Objects of the Spirit
This unique volume details the art of ritual in Jewish ceremony and how those customs relate to the rise of spirituality in the United States.
Annual Report
Reports for 1980- include also the Annual report of the National Council on the Arts.
