| From
the Brooklyn Museum’s permanent collection, twelve rarely-seen,
extraordinary mosaic panels from the sanctuary floor of a Roman-period
synagogue excavated in present-day Tunisia are the keystones of an
important exhibition that explores ancient Roman and Jewish history.
Nine additional mosaics from other rooms in the synagogue and nearby
buildings further illuminate the development of synagogue decoration
in the late Roman Empire. Related artifacts, such as contemporaneous
textiles, marble statues, gold jewelry, and bronze ritual objects,
are included. Organized by the Brooklyn Museum. |

CUBA AVANT-GARDE: CONTEMPORARY CUBAN ART FROM THE FARBER COLLECTION
(Green/FOA)
Large scale paintings, sculpture, drawings, photographs, and mixed
media works highlight the cultural mixing, aesthetic diversity,
and critical voice that reflect international contemporary art,
but emerge from the distinct circumstances of Cuba itself. Forty
Cuban born artists who live in and outside of Cuba use subtle devices
of irony, metaphor, and ambiguity to challenge accepted artistic
and political discourse, while employing a rich variety of experimental,
conceptual, and postmodern strategies. A fully illustrated bilingual
publication accompanies the exhibition. Organized by the Samuel
P. Harn Museum of Art at the University of Florida and toured by
Curatorial Assistance Traveling Exhibitions (CATE), Pasadena, California.
