Join JMM for an open gallery engagement in connection to RE: Intimacy. Image. Identity. on this new exhibition’s first day.The Jewish Museum of Maryland’s 2005 exhibit Intimacy. Image. Identity. Perspectives on Orthodox Jewish Women’s Haircovering presented a traditional form of dress practiced upon marriage. Its series of black and white film photographs by Zoë Reznick traveled across five sites state-wide. Two decades following the development of this project, Museum staff resurfaced the exhibition materials.
Through RE: Intimacy. Image. Identity., the artist reunites the women she photographed and reimagines this body of work through an expanded lens. The exhibition features select framed prints from the original show, archival materials and photographs, and multi-media reflections shared by women participating in the project, exploring the personal significance of Jewish haircovering practice over time, together, in the present.
This project is an activation of the Museum’s transformed spaces, including the experimental Long Gallery and its neighboring audio/visual production studio. Experience the exhibition, hear light remarks from the artist Zoë Reznick, and share your own responses in the space.
Kosher refreshments will be served.
Program registration is included with admission to the Museum. You can learn more about the event and register here: https://jewishmuseummd.org/event/re-intimacy-image-identity-open-gallery/
