Belz Gallery

Belz Gallery

The Belz Gallery is a Judaica museum which displays paintings, sculptures, and ritual objects that reflect the Jewish experience in the modern world. It includes eight thematic sections dedicated to Emancipation-era depictions of Jewish life, Eastern European-born Jewish artists and the School of Paris, hiddur mitzvah and aesthetics in Jewish ritual art, Jewish sculpture and memorial art in modern Israel, artistic responses to the Holocaust, and post-Soviet Jewish emigrant artists in Israel. 

The Belz Gallery is a resource for all students, faculty, and staff at Yeshiva University who wish to expand their knowledge of modern Jewish art and cultivate an appreciation for the beauty of Jewish visual expression.
