exhibits for the Cultural Heritage
Artists Project, has collaborated with
Soberman, the only artist represent-
ed in both exhibits.
"Linda and I visited two churches
that had been synagogues on
Linwood in Detroit:' explains Rubin.
"We found that the buildings were
essentially unchanged, and the
kitchen cupboards still were labeled
meat and dairy.
"We came up with seven panels of
digital collages of what was and what
is. They are photographs that seem
to be paintings."
Soberman decided on the original
Beth Abraham and Beth Moses syna-
gogues because of their small spaces,
which seemed more traditional in
relating to cohesive communities.
"When I saw these synagogues, I
imagined what synagogues might
have been like in small, European
towns:' says Soberman.
Todd Weinstein, who grew up in
Oak Park and moved to New York, is
a photo artist showing three stills —
the interior of a renovated German
synagogue, the exterior of a German
synagogue with migrating birds
overhead and a marble wall in New
York, where Weinstein seemed to
envision an abstract image of Moses
holding broken tablets.
"I wanted to create a bridge
between synagogues:' Weinstein says.
"The photograph of the wall repre-
sents a poetic interpretation that ties
synagogues together."
Joan Altman Roth, another former
Michigan resident whose family was
active with Congregation Shaarey
Zedek, is showing a photographic
collage that brings together her fam-
ily's involvement with the synagogue;
Beth Olem, the Jewish cemetery
where it is believed at least one of
her ancestors is buried; and the GM
auto plant that now has the cemetery
on its property.
"I loved growing up in Detroit,
and I feel I have captured part of the

Julian Voloj, whose wife, Lisa
Keys, grew up in Michigan, also has
completed a photographic project.
He went through the former Jewish
neighborhoods of Detroit and took
black and white pictures of the
buildings that once were synagogues.
The one color photo shows the door
of the still operating Downtown
Synagogue.
"The color picture is at the center,
and the other images surround
says Voloj, another New Yorker. "The
photos are assembled in a hamsa
formation:'
Rabbi James Goodman, once
an Oak Parker and now spiritual
leader at Neve Shalom in Missouri,
will have a work in the exhibit and
entertain members of the Holocaust
Memorial Center Wednesday eve-
ning, Feb. 29.
"I came across a remnant of a
stained glass window from what had
been a synagogue in St. Louis and
wanted to do a project about that:'
Goodman explains. "The building
had become an urban church, and I
wanted to track its story:'
Goodman wrote poetry and prose
about the building and asked archi-
tect Susan Shender to design three
scrolls illustrating his narrative. The
scrolls follow the form of Ethiopian
prayer scrolls the two had seen on
display.
Goodman's performance, singing
and playing guitar, will be based
on all the works being shown at the
Holocaust Memorial Center.
"I will take some traditional music
and add my own songs and stories:'
he says. "I love the individual takes
on the central theme, and I wanted
to make a contribution to every-
body's work."
