Uncover what Jewish art means today with the luminary authors behind our Chutzpah: Spirit. Recollection. Self. publication.

Andrew Renton (Professor of Curating at Goldsmiths, University of London) and Katrina Schwartz (Curator, Special Projects, Whitechapel Gallery) join Alana Kushnir (Founder & Director, Guest Work Agency), Gregory Uzelac (Artist & Lecturer, Faculty of Arts & Social Sciences, University of Sydney) and Esther Gyorki (Head of Collections & Interpretation, Jewish Museum of Australia) for a panel conversation to mark the book’s launch.

How do Jewish artists, curators and critics navigate visibility, vulnerability and voice? How does history inform the present – and are contemporary Jewish aesthetics expanding, resisting or reframing tradition? How is creative practice, expression and identity being shaped by global events and local responses to them?

Don’t miss this timely exploration, facilitated by Sidra Kranz Moshinsky (Director & CEO, Jewish Museum of Australia). Arrive early to immerse yourself in Chutzpah: Spirit. Recollection. Self pre-event.
