French photographer/social anthropologist Frederic Brenner has been chronicling the Jewish Diaspora in over forty countries on five continents since 1978. This exhibition will present works selected from approximately 80,000 of Brenner's images the most extensive and diverse record of Jewish life ever created by a single individual. Brenner's work chronicles the evolution of Jewish civilization by producing visual histories of Jewish communities. He has captured these communities on the edge of disappearing as well as others that are now emerging. The photographs, which engage the disciplines of anthropology, philosophy and history, are the points of entry. Along with Brenner's records, the reaction of the subjects, the insights of scholars and critics, these works can be used to address such issues as culture-specific portraiture, the role of image making in the Jewish tradition, photography in Jewish life and the nature of ethnographic photography.
