ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Born in Brooklyn in 1932, Kahane was elected to the Knesset, the Israeli parliament, in 1984 on an extremist platform calling for Arabs to be expelled from Israel, among other ideas. In 1986, under a new “anti-racism law,” he was barred from running for re-election. In 1990, he would be assassinated by an Egyptian American in New York City. In today’s Knesset, the Kahanist party Otzma Yehudit (literally, Jewish Power) has one seat. But in 1968, before his time in Israel, he founded the militant Jewish Defense League. Focused on Jewish pride, Kahane called for “every Jew a .22” and popularized the slogan “Never Again.” He spoke out against intermarriage, believed a second Holocaust was inevitable and that antisemitism was a pervasive threat on the left and right, accusing less confrontational Jews of lacking Jewish pride. Although his militant and violent tactics alienated the Jewish mainstream, he was a key figure in publicizing the fight to free Soviet Jewry.

Eduard Gurevich was born in Dnepropetrovsk Ukraine in 1947 in the city of the illustrious Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, known as the Lubavitcher Rebbe, and began learning to paint from childhood. Gurevich studied art in the famous art Schools of Ukraine. In 1990 he made alya to Israel. From his first days in Israel he devoted himself to painting the Judaic themes. His paintings are full of his love to his Jewish roots, traditions and the grandeur of Judaism. His unique realistic style gives the viewer a sense of being there, in Jerusalem. The dream of Eduard Gurevich is that people throughout the world could appreciate the beauty and the wisdom of Judaism and Israel through his art. He participated in many international exhibitions and his works are in numerous private collections in Great Britain, Belgium, Germany, Canada, USA, France and Israel. ?ref=tn_tnmn mail: tl. 050-2372571
