Join us in-person or online on Thursday, April 20 from 5:30PM until 8:30PM ET for the opening of Beyond Borders: The Art of Siona Benjamin.
Schedule of events:
5:30PM ET | Reception (in-person only).
6:15PM ET | Siona Benjamin takes us “Beyond Borders” with an illustrated talk about her artistic journey to this deeply personal and wide-ranging body of work. In-person and via Livestream.
Siona Benjamin has been making intricately detailed, transnational art with a feminist, Jewish, and political bent for almost two decades. Her distinct and unusual heritage as a descendant of the Bene Israel Jewish community of India informs her artistic perspective. Immigration, gender, the concept of “home”, and the role of art in social change are explored through vibrantly hued paintings.
All in-person events below will take place at Mayerson Hall, Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, 3101 Clifton Avenue, Cincinnati, OH. Livestream links will be provided upon registration.
