ART AND RELIGION

Art and Religion1: THE QUESTION of what is Jewish art and who is a Jewish artist is nowhere more problematic than in the fine arts. Despite the persistent doubts and objections, Jewish artists joined in virtually all the art movements of the twentieth century. Though many artists do not make an association between their art and their Jewish birth, there have been numerous artists who acknowledge their Jewishness and the role being Jewish plays in their work. There are many whose work has mirrored the momentous events of Jewish experience in modern history. Certainly, while some artists portray Jewish subject matter or explore Jewish themes, not all do, and though many are not even representational, the work conveys both the personal expression of the artist and links to issues of Jewish life and Jewish identity..................................................................................................................................95-101

PAINTING

Art Critique Konstantin Pavlishin: Two distinguished painters from the Ukraine captured my attention and interest. German Gold, the Judaic Art Master par excellence and Konstantin Pavlishin the Christian Modern Classicism Art Leader in Eastern Europe. Finally, I have the opportunity and the time to write a piece on Pavlishin. There are several traits of distinction in the artistic technique of Pavlishin. The most predominant one is perfection in and for details, especially in the most intimate and truthful facial expressions. When you look at distance at this very large painting “Jesus on the Cross”, you are looking at an imposing fresco on linen. It attracts your attention for a while, and short after, you nod your head telling yourself “an other old classical piece”. ...................................................................................................................................................102

SCIENCE AND SPACE

The Hubble Telescope: The farthest object in the Universe yet detected has been seen by scientists using the Hubble and Keck telescopes. It is so distant its light must have set out when the Universe was just 750m years old to reach the Earth now. Details of the discovery were revealed by a team of astrophysicists from the California Institute of Technology. They said the work underlined again the remarkable capabilities of Hubble and called on NASA to reverse its decision to stop servicing the telescope. The US space agency has confirmed it will not send another shuttle to upgrade the space telescope, which probably means Hubble has no more than three years of full observations ahead of it. "We need Hubble.........................................................................................................................................................104

Clark Chapman Asteroid: Earth Almost Hit by an Asteroid: Astronomers have revealed how they came within minutes of alerting the world to a potential asteroid strike last month. Some scientists believed on 13 January that a 30m object, later designated 2004 AS1, had a one-in-four chance of hitting the planet within 36 hours. It could have caused local devastation and the researchers contemplated a call to President Bush before new data finally showed there was no danger. The procedures for raising the alarm in such circumstances are now being revised. At the time, the president's team would have been putting the final touches to a speech he was due to make the following day at the headquarters of Nasa.........105-106
