Contemporary Jewish Museum, San Francisco (April 22 - September 28, 2010)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 fromI am no where near a designer and truly don't understand the difficulty that goes into the creation and vision of this type of work. It is very good.. Places is on of those perfect coffee table books. We have this book on our coffee table and every single person who comes to visit is mesmerized by the amazing detail and beauty within its pages. Simply a beautiful crafted book of amazing artistic and 3D renderings. I bought this book as a gift for a Rabbi. I can highly recommend Sean Hargreaves book for anyone who is interested inthe arts of film design.. I had it myself and thought it was a little outside the box and that they might enjoy it and not have it already. I love the pictures and descriptions of modern Jewish art. I don't care if you are designer or just purely enjoy and appreciate creativity and want to have your mind blown by a great artist, this book is for you.. The stunning images make you pick it up over and over again
