The Jewish Museum Continues New Exhibition Series with COLLECTION TABLEAUX, 11/23

Studio Armadillo, a Tel Aviv-based design collective, was founded by Hadas Kruk (Israeli, b. 1970) and Anat Stein (Israeli, b. 1972), and in 2002 also included Sharon Samish-Dagan (Israeli, b. 1971). Known for its modernist, often whimsical designs for household and industrial objects, it has also produced a line of contemporary Judaica.

Widely admired for its exhibitions and collections that inspire people of all backgrounds, The Jewish Museum is one of the world's preeminent institutions devoted to exploring the intersection of art and Jewish culture from ancient to modern times. The Jewish Museum organizes a diverse schedule of internationally acclaimed and award-winning temporary exhibitions as well as dynamic and engaging programs for families, adults, and school groups. The Museum was established in 1904, when Judge Mayer Sulzberger donated 26 ceremonial art objects to The Jewish Theological Seminary of America as the core of a museum collection. Today, the Museum maintains a collection of 26,000 objects - paintings, sculpture, works on paper, photographs, archaeological artifacts, ritual objects, and broadcast media.
