Celia Gurevitch Jewish Community Library

Last month I mentioned that we won five books. They have arrived. I will talk about all of them one by one, but first I want to share the most amazing piece. It is a beautifully designed and executed pop-up book by Chuck Fischer, called “In the beginning – the art of Genesis“. Being a fragile item, this will be on reserve, i.e. available only to read/view in the library, but I still would love to share this volume with as many people of all ages as possible. As you can suspect it contains lots of artwork from different eras and regions of the world worked into incredible pop-up sculptures. Below is a picture of one of the 7 compositions, but 2-dimensional pictures do not give justice to this “book.” (Click on the picture to get a bigger view.)
