Invaluable witnesses to their era, painters in Montreal's Jewish community offer unique insight into the atmosphere that reigned in the city between 1930 and 1948, evoking both the history of the working class and the misery of the Great Depression.
The exhibition reflects the rich and distinctive artistic contribution of these individuals through a selection of 80 works organized around four themes:
The City - During the interwar period, the expression of artistic modernity in Montreal emerged through innovative approaches to art and the artists' keen interest in a creative exploration of the city -- its neighbourhoods, architecture and atmosphere.
People in the City - An expression of leftist ideals and a progressive vision of greater social justice, the works are witness to both the inherent misery of urban life during the Great Depression and to Montreal's brimming cultural scene: leisure, entertainment, and the nightlife on the Main.
The War - World War II saw many artists from the Jewish community become actively involved in combat. They took an original approach to portraying the fundamental issues that were galvanizing the world in the fight against Hitler and fascism.
The Human Figure - The intimacy of the studio, self and family portraits all figured prominently in the desire of the artists to create living art that disassociated itself from traditional landscapes to focus instead on the human form while exploring shape, colour and emotion.
Among the artists represented are Sylvia Ary, Jack Beder, Alexander Bercovitch, Sam Borenstein, Rita Briansky, Guitta Caiserman-Roth, Eric Goldberg, Herman Heimlich, Harry Mayerovitch, Louis Muhlstock, Ernst Neumann and Moe Reinblatt.
Jewish Painters of Montreal - Witnesses of their Time, 1930-1948 is produced and its touring exhibition organized by the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec. It is presented in Montreal by the McCord Museum with the financial support of the Ministère de la Culture, des Communications et de la Conditio

Clément Pansaers est l’une des figures les plus singulières de la littérature française de Belgique. Son œuvre, impossible à caractériser d’un mot (avant-gardisme mais pas tout à fait, dadaïsme mais sans l’influence de Tzara – qu’il connaîtra après avoir écrit beaucoup de ses textes, avant de contribuer à la disparition du mouvement et de disparaître lui-même prématurément, originalité fondée sur la liberté et la lucidité) n’a pas fini de nous étonner. On peut savoir gré à Didier Devillez et à Benjamin Hennot de mettre cet étonnement à la disposition du public, matériellement et intellectuellement. Jean-Pierre Longre (janvier 2003) |
