Sonia Fellous, through six face-to-face and zoomed-in sessions, presents the major periods of Jewish art. Expressions of grandeur, fear and hope. By examining not only artistic but also civilizational issues of memory and transmission. The presentation of the courses is accompanied by a quotation from Elie Faure: “Greece had discovered its soul in the form, Israel had tried to impose its soul on the form. The inescapable historian indeed questioned the complicated relationship of Judaism to art at the time when it was gaining its credentials in Greece.
