Dear Visitors,
I write to you in what promises to be an exciting year at the
Museum. On February 13, we open Herod the Great: The King's Final Journey, our
most ambitious archaeological exhibition ever and the world's first exhibition
about King Herod and his achievements as an imperial builder, culminating
with his own monumental tomb at Herodium. And Joan Miro's Spanish Dancer:
Variations on a Theme, a "focus" exhibition showcasing two of our own
masterpieces, illuminated by related works on loan from museums worldwide,
also opens in February, joining a rich schedule of ongoing exhibitions on many
other themes.
Our recently inaugurated Israeli Art Season, a celebration
of contemporary Israeli art, features four exhibitions - Fields of Vision:
Landscapes by Israel Hershberg (closing Feb 9) ; Nelly Agassi : Video Works ; Veronese Green:
Joshua Borkovsky, Paintings, 1987-2012 ; and Great Wide Open: New and
Old in the Collection - presenting Israeli art in a contemporary and historical
context with important loans and works from all of the Museum's collections.
We thank you for your continuing friendship and support and look forward to
welcoming you to the Museum in the months ahead.
James S. Snyder

Herod the Great:
The King's Final Journey
From February 13
The first exhibition entirely dedicated to Herod the Great, Israel's greatest builder and one of the most controversial figures in Jewish history. Large reconstructions and new finds from Herod's palaces in Herodium, Jericho, and other sites are on display. Exhibited to the public for the very first time, these artifacts shed new light on the political, architectural, and aesthetic influence of Herod's rule (37-4 BCE).
Herod's tomb - discovered at Herodium after a 40-year search by the late Prof. Ehud Netzer of the Hebrew University - holds pride of place. The exhibition is held in memory of Prof. Netzer, who fell to his death in 2010 on the site of his discovery.

Joan Miro's Spanish Dancer: Variations on a Theme
From February 27
Flamenco's sensuous arm work, articulate hand gestures, and percussive steps inspired Joan Miro to produce numerous sketches, drawings, paintings, and collages of Spanish dancers over a period of sixty
years, from 1921 to 1981. These witty and playful works are rendered in a variety of styles - from realism and cubism to surrealism and abstraction - exhibiting Miro's constant experimentation with form, medium, and technique. Miro's dancers transform the mythic, popularized image of the erotic dancer, introducing a modernist vocabulary of visual signs that express the artist's origins in an evolving personal yet universal avant-garde language.

Sandbox: A Joint Project with the Bezalel Industrial Design Department
From February 19
The exhibition presents selected works by industrial design students

concluded in the Museum's Youth Wing. Every year the department's
students spend time at the Dead Sea experimenting with traditional
techniques and local materials. The results exemplify a balance between
improvisation and rigorous planning, with a particular emphasis on the
creative process.

Fields of Vision: Landscapes by Israel Hershberg
Until Feb 9
The eminent realist painter Israel Hershberg takes a long, hard, and unrelenting look at his subject, be it a still life, a portrait, a nude figure, or a landscape. For years he meticulously depicted isolated objects, capturing the effects of light and of time on their mutable surfaces, leaving no detail of texture or composition untended.

Nelly Agassi: Video Works
Artist Nelly Agassi uses her body as a platform on which she performs repetitive actions dealing with femininity, physical pain, and emotional experiences. From the beginning of her career in the mid-1990s,
Agassi's video works have documented these actions with an immediacy that resonates with the art of the 1970s, which placed the body at the forefront. Though in many of her works Agassi seems to record mundane actions, their slow, meditative repetition transforms them into powerful
rituals that expose the fragility of the body and its limitations, while conveying both lyricism and drama.

Forging Ahead: Wolpert and Gumbel, Israeli Silversmiths for the Modern Age
German-born silversmiths David Heinz Gumbel (1906-1992) and Ludwig Yehuda Wolpert (1900-1981) were among the first to adapt the modern style, characterized by clean, flowing, and functional forms, to the design of Jewish
ceremonial objects. The exhibition illuminates the untold
tale of these two visionary teachers and creators, who became pillars of modern Judaica.
