Out of ChaosBen Uri: 100 Years in London
Sarah MacDougall;Rachel Dickson
Founded in London’s East End in 1915, the Ben Uri Gallery remains one of the only museums in Europe dedicated to Jewish art. Featuring rarely seen work from painters including the pre-Raphaelite Simeon Solomon, Bomberg, Chagall, the ‘Whitechapel Boys’ and modern European artists, this well-illustrated catalogue celebrates the gallery’s centenary exhibition at Somerset House and offers a visual survey of art’s engagement with identity, migration and Jewish cultural heritage.
