A gallery talk (in Hebrew) will take place on Thursday, December 26, 2024, at 5:00 pm. Curator Idit Sharoni will give the historical background on the influence of carpets from Moslem countries on Jewish art, and on pre-state Zionist art. I will present the series of paintings Prayer Rugs, one of which is on view in the exhibition Weaving Magic: Carpets from the Orient, at the museum.
