Judith Margolis

Artist and essayist Judith Margolis, co-curator of Women of the Book, has been representing the project abroad, recruiting and mentoring artists since its inception. As Art Editor of NASHIM: Journal of Jewish Women’s Studies and Gender Issues (University of Indiana), she has written about Jewish feminist art for many years. A number of her subjects are also participants in the project. Judith’s art and writing explore the notion of “creative response to infirmity,” and chronicle tensions between social consciousness, feminism, and religious ritual tradition, especially, but not exclusively, in Judaism.

At Art Kibbutz presented her work and the Women of the Book project.
