The Russian Acculturation
Program of the Jewish Com-
munity Center will present
Artistic Impressions by Soviet
Jewish Emigre Artists on
Sunday at the Maple/Drake
Center. The grand opening
will take place from 1 to 4
p.m. Sunday.
The exhibit introduces ar-
tists whose lives span the cen-
tury, from F.S. Lembersky
and L.G. Sklutovsky at the
beginning of the century to A.
Khaykin and S. Alexandrova
who were born in the
mid-1960s.
Lembersky studied art at
the Kiev Art Institute, subse-
quently entering and com-
pleting his studies at the Art
Academy in Leningrad. By
1960, he had more than 1,000
works to his credit including
oils, watercolors, gouache,
pastels and drawings.
His works are on display in
many museums in the Soviet
Union. Lembersky died in
Leningrad in 1970. His
widow, Lucia Lembersky
emigrated to Ann Arbor in
1980, where she was recent-
ly joined by her daughter and
granddaughter.
Lazar Sklutovsky began
studying art at age 5. At 14
he entered the Academy of
Art. He earned a diploma in
theater arts as well as fine
arts. He worked as chief artist
of the Kiev Jewish Theater
until 1941 while working on
his painting privately.
During World War II he
served in the Soviet Army,
was wounded three times and
received many honors and
medals. In 1982, he and his
wife emigrated to the U.S.
Alexander Khaykin and his
family waited 10 years for
their exit visas from the
Soviet Union. Arriving in the
United States in 1988, the
Khaykin family lived briefly
in Philadelphia and Colum-
bus and they arrived in
Detroit in March.
Ceramic artist Simona
Alexandrov's family spent
nine years in refusal, even-
tually arriving in Detroit in
July 1988. Alexandrov has
been awarded a scholarship in
the fine arts master's degree
program in Cranbrook.
The exhibit will continue
through June 4.
