EXHIBITION: Nahum HaLevi  Scintillating Songlines from Sinai
  

This exhibition is dedicated to the memory of Shmuel and Clara Bennett
Nahum HaLevi’s paintings attempt to grasp the transcendent meaning of the
Hebrew Bible and, through art, endeavour to better understand the underlying nature, structure and essence of the universe. HaLevi expresses the Biblical narrative by deriving multiple images from different translations of the original Modern Hebrew
text and at times retranslating the words back into ancient Hebrew and further back
into proto-Sinaitic pictographic Hebrew.
