gram 9:30 p.m. Tuesday at
Cong. Shaarey Zedek.
This sixth and concluding
presentation of the series "Per-
spectives on Jewish Art" will
be a discussion of the relation-
ships between Jewish themes
and the artist.
The artists will present ex-
amples of their work in a con-
sideration of these relation-
ships.

was awarded in 1957 a Ful-
bright Fellowship at the College

ors practically every year since
1953, and has exhibited his
work at leading galleries and
art institutions, including the
Jewish Museum.

his sculpture locally and na-
tionally, winning many prizes.
