This slide lecture examines the various art forms created by Jewish Women
artists. Their art reflects their unique life experiences, particularly as
they reacted to the culture and the times in which they lived. From painters
to sculptors, printmakers and photographers, these artists expressed the best
of themselves and their artistic skills. Their art displays their concerns
for social equality as well as time bound aesthetic issues, particularly
during the Modernist era (1900-1980).
