Mit der Erweiterung des Jüdischen Museums entstand am Museumsufer ein ganz neuer Museumskomplex. Neben dem historischen Rothschild-Palais steht nun ein moderner Lichtbau von Staab Architekten. Gemeinsam bilden sie ein stimmiges Ensemble aus alt und neu und ein neues kulturelles Zentrum mitten in Frankfurt.
The expansion of the Jewish Museum has given rise to a completely new museum complex. The modern extension was designed by Staab Architekten and has been built next to the historic Rothschild Palais. The two buildings form a harmonious ensemble of new and old, thus creating a new cultural center in the heart of Frankfurt.

Homage to Otto Weidt – In the famous backyard at Haus :Otto Weidt (2 May 1883 - 22 December 1947) was the owner of a workshop in Berlin for blind and deaf. During the Holocaust, he fought to protect his Jewish workers against deportation and he has been recognised for his work as one of the Righteous Men of the World's Nations. The Museum of Otto Weidt's Workshop for the Blind remains on the original site of the factory and is dedicated to his life.
Hebrew Benevolent Society Cemetery is one of the Chicago’s oldest cemeteries. And it’s the oldest existing Jewish cemetery in the city, founded in 1851.

I don’t remember the name of this film but it’s made in the Czech Republic and is delightfully grainy.

My favorire and certainly a Mid-Atlantic area favorite. A friend of ours from Baltimore baked and sent this one to us and it is excellent.

In 1942 the Nazi mayor of Frankfurt ordered the distruction of the old Jewish cemetery. Some headstones survived.
It's lovely that the Jewish burials behind this gate are preserved and maintained, particularly because other nearby Jewish burial sites have not been sufficiently protected.
In the vicinity of the Pillory square some shops targeting the tourist are to be found. Belmonte being well known in Portugal for its important Jewish community, many of the offered products are related to the Jewish faith and culture.

Studio: 2nd Year
Project: design of a Jewish Wedding Chapel
Presentation board composition 1. drawn with pen, color pencil, and chalk pastels.
The design for a Jewish Wedding Chapel was a controversial subject when our studio class was given this assignment. Another of our professors was in disagreement on this project because we were basically creating a non-existent building type. He felt strongly that we, as young designers still learning design, needed to have a firm precedent to study from before taking on a project of this type so early in our education.
So, not having a real Jewish wedding chapel as precedent I used the ceremony itself as my inspiration. The design, in a nutshell, is about procession and the process of ceremony and the pathway of life.
Our context was a piece of land that jutted out into a picturesque lake in a wooded area of north Georgia. Naturally I had to have people arrive to the site and then proceed towards the chapel. As one did this a rhythm of markers lead down a path that eventually became a rhythm of portals, which then became part of the building itself. Before these guiding elements became the building though one is confronted with a stone wall. This becomes an abrupt element and a clear threshold to go through. This threshold signifies the importance of marriage and the commitment that both the man and woman have to make.
The building was derived more as a set of function to the ceremony itself and its formal qualities are also representative of the Hoopa that is an important representation of the mans home in the Jewish wedding ceremony. Once the ceremony finishes the married man and woman would proceed outward back to the main pathway that then becomes undefined and again representative to the future for this new married couple.

The Swedish poet Levertin wrote on the Jewish cemetery in Prague:
Lägg icke blommor, band och fransar
på vården över deras ben,
ej livet gav dem gröna kransar
men sten. På vårdarne lägg sten!
If you don't speak Swedish, here's a quick and dirty translation:
Do not put flower-wreaths and ribbons
upon the tombs that guard their bones
Life did not give them flower garlands
but stones. So on their graves put stones!
