An exhibition of Havdalah spice
containers is currently on display at
the Spertus Museum of the Spertus
Institute of Jewish Studies in Chicago.
New Jersey artist Ina Golub, winner
of the institute-sponsored Philip and
Sylvia Spertus Judaica Prize for her
beaded Havdalah spice container, was
honored along with runners-up Josh
Burde of Israel and Paula J. Newman
of California at a reception held last
month in the museum's Field Gallery.
The works of the winners and 23
finalists will be shown at the museum
through June 20. Elliot K. Ginsburg,
Ph.D., University of Michigan associ-
ate professor of Jewish thought in the
Department of
Near Eastern
Studies, was a
juror and wrote
an essay for the
catalogue
accompanying
the show.
Another juror
was Daniel
Hoffman, direc-
tor, Cranbrook
Architecture
Office, Cran-
brook Academy
of Art.
The Spertus
Judaica Prize was t4:4'
established in
1994 as a way to promote the
creation of new and innovative
Jewish ceremonial objects.
Havdalah spice containers,
the 1998 subject, are used in
the ceremony marking the
end of Shabbat and other Jew-
ish festivals. Havdalah bless-

cial braided candle and spices.
A spice container is a ves-
sel that holds spices that are
inhaled to symbolize bringing
the sweetness of Shabbat, now con-
cluding, into the workweek. The
spices may include any fragrant spice,
flower or other aromatic, although
myrtle is traditional.
Golub's winning entry is a fanciful,
beaded design shaped like a fish, refer-
ring to the mythical sea creature Aden
Livyatan (Lord Leviathan), which
symbolizes abundance and fertility.

fish-shaped design won

Judaica Prize for best

Josh Burde created a spice
container shaped like a
pomegranate.

Below: Paula J. Newman
was a runner-up with her
stainless-steel floral design.

The fish "is woven in peyote stitch of
seed beads over an armature of Hexo-
lire (a material conventionally used for
orthopedic splints), covering a glass
vessel that contains the b'samim, or
spices," said Golub. "It is embellished
with a variety of decorative glass and
metal elements.
"My wish is for this beadwork
Leviathan to radiate the light of the
