Visit The Studio Of Judith K. Weiner on Sunday, July 23, from 2-5 p.m.

The Judaism and Art Group, sponsors of the Art Show currently mounted in the shul’s community room, is offering the Congregation opportunities to see the studios where member artists create their work.       Coming up on Sunday afternoon, July 23, from 2 to 5, is an intimate tour of the setting that inspires the abstract concepts of shul member Judith K. Weiner. Visitors will view an historical evolution of the artist’s work from the paintings and drawings of the 1960s, through ceramic sculpture constructions, to current works in progress.

Trained as a painter and sculptor at MOMA, the Art Students League, Boston University’s School of Fine and Applied Arts, New York University, and the New York Institute of Technology, Judith builds her images sequentially, working in two- and three-dimensional multiples. A selection of her work can be seen on Instagram @judithkaufmanweiner and at jkweiner.com

The artist, whose oeuvre includes painting, drawing, sculpture and experimental studies in new materials, was recently featured on the Instagram account of Long Island’s Heckscher Museum. She has been featured and is represented by the Ilon Art Gallery in historic Harlem, shown at VSOP, and is preparing a solo show in Locust Valley, NY.

The initial J&A Studio Tour invited members-only to view Saul Rosenstreich’s work, which was displayed throughout the artist’s home. Visitors found the art mounted in-place offered a progression of ideas from early studies to more complex renderings that revealed the artist’s creative process.

The event at Judith K. Weiner’s studio invites the congregation to enjoy the immersive experience with a wine and cheese reception.
