    • Guest Curator Dr. Aaron Rosen: Up/Rooted

      November 6 – December 31, 2025

      Maine Jewish Museum

      About This Exhibition

      In 1989, the Jewish artist R.B. Kitaj coined the term Diasporist Art, calling for an art “in which a pariah people, an unpopular, stigmatized people, is taken up, pondered in their dilemmas.” Today, a new generation of Jewish artists is pondering what it means to be displaced or uprooted, sketching out and creating connections across many communities and identities. This exhibition is guest curated by Dr. Aaron Rosen, Executive Director of The Clemente Course in the Humanities; Founder/Director of the Parsonage Gallery; Visiting Professor of Sacred Traditions & the Arts, King’s College London. Artists include Rosalba Breazeale, Matt Jones, Susan Klein, Aaron Margolis, Meirav Ong, and Naomi Safran-Hon.

      Exhibition Sponsor:

      Leir Foundation, in memory of Henry J. and Erna D. Leir.

      About This Exhibition

      Personality tests show me to be an ambivert – dead center between intro and extro. On the fence. My art requires spending a lot of time there.

      About This Exhibition

      Throughout his photographic series in the snowy mountains of the Rocky Mountain West, Jesse Melchiskey explores the dichotomy of the highs of breathtaking vistas and ascents on snow and rock with the lows of numbing classes and the empty feeling when the drugs and adrenaline wear off.
