SUMMARY:Lecture & Lunch: Joshua Teplitsky on the Aftermath of Epidemics Among Jews of Early Modern Europe
DESCRIPTION:In connection with an exhibit “COVID Pandemic Five Years On: Remembering and Forgetting” \nThe spring of 2025 marks five years since the first outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. Retrospectives in different forms of media—books\, newspaper articles and editorials\, radio and podcasts\, and conferences and gatherings—all represent different approaches to grappling with the past and thinking about the future. How did people in past times confront epidemics\, not as they were happening\, but after the fact? What tools did they have and create to commemorate and mourn\, to rebuild and renew\, and even to plan for the next crisis? In this talk\, we will look at examples from Jewish communities and culture in early modern Europe\, especially in the 17th and 18th centuries. We will explore examples of how media shared memory\, ritual\, preserved practices\, and how Jews understood themselves as poised between past traumas and future necessities. \nThis talk is connected to a new exhibit at Fordham’s O’Hare Special Collections and Archives\, “COVID Pandemic Five Years On: Remembering and Forgetting of Epidemics in History.” \nA kosher lunch will be served. Registration is required. \nAbout the Speaker\nJoshua Teplitsky is the Joseph Meyerhoff Associate Professor of Modern Jewish History. He studies the history of Jewish life in early modern Central Europe\, with an eye both to the particularities of Jewish experience and the wider contexts of Jewish-Christian interaction\, minority experience\, and what the history of minorities reveals about majority culture. He is the author of Prince of the Press: How One Collector Built History’s Most Enduring and Remarkable Jewish Library (Yale\, 2019)\, which explores the history of an early 18th-century Jewish book collector\, with an eye to the history of material texts\, the history of collecting\, and the cultures of learning and power in which his library was formed. The book won the Salo Baron Prize of the American Academy for Jewish Research for best first book in Jewish Studies in 2019\, the 2020 Jordan Schnitzer Book Award of the Association for Jewish Studies\, and was a finalist for the National Jewish Book Award. \nIn 2022\, he published an edited volume titled Be Fruitful! The Etrog in Jewish Art\, Culture\, and History (Mineged Press)\, with Sharon Liberman Mintz and Warren Klein. Teplitsky is currently at work on a book provisionally titled “Quarantine in the Prague Ghetto: Jews\, Christians\, and the Plague in Early Modern Europe\,” which reconstructs a six-month plague epidemic in the city of Prague in the early 18th century. In April 2020\, Teplitsky joined Magda Teter for two conversations in what became a pandemic-era series of webinars about epidemics in Jewish history.

SUMMARY:Urban Devotions\, Images of Faith in the City: A Photographic Exhibition by David Gonzalez
DESCRIPTION:Join the Fordham community to welcome photographer David Gonzalez for an opening reception of his show “Urban Devotions” at Refuge Gallery at the Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs. “Urban Devotions” recently lived at Fordham’s Lipani Gallery and will now be on exhibit until May at the Refuge Gallery\, located on the second floor of Canisius Hall. \nRefreshments from a local Bronx restaurant will be served. Please register below and invite your colleagues and peers! \nAbout the Show\nNew York has been a city of faith\, whether it’s small devotions in unexpected nooks or bold public declarations of belief. And with a global city reshaped every few generations\, traditions offer a familiar and comforting touch\, if not hope itself\, in every corner of the city if you look. Indeed\, as the writer Oscar Hijuelos once said to the artist about New Yorkers who go about their days oblivious to the nuances of faith: “They are like tone-deaf. They hear a piano being played and they only hear ‘thunka-thunk.’ There is this wild jazz going on called religion and some people don’t have the chops.” \nAbout the Artist\nDavid Gonzalez is a journalist at The New York Times. Among other posts\, he has been the Times‘ Bronx bureau chief\, the “About New York” columnist\, and the Central America and Caribbean bureau chief. His coverage has ranged from the Oklahoma City bombing and Haiti’s humanitarian crises to chronicling how the Bronx emerged from years of official neglect and to in-depth reports on how Latino immigration is shaping the United States. In addition to his print reporting\, Gonzalez is a photographer and the co-editor of the Times‘ Lens Blog\, which has become the premier internet site for photojournalists from around the world. \nIn 2009\, Gonzalez and five fellow photographers—Angel Franco\, Joe Conzo Jr.\, Ricky Flores\, Francisco Molina Reyes II\, and Edwin Pagán—formed a collective known as Seis del Sur (Six from the South)\, with the shared goal of documenting the life of the South Bronx that they had all witnessed\, particularly from the 1970s through the early 1990s.

SUMMARY:New Exhibit Opening: “Henna\, Love\, and Light: Jewish Life and Art in Siona Benjamin’s India”
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening of a new exhibit “Henna\, Love\, and Light: Jewish Life and Art in Siona Benjamin’s India\,” which brings to Fordham several pieces from Siona Benjamin’s series “Faces: Weaving Indian Jewish Narratives.” These pieces serve as anchors that link the present and the past. Around Siona Benjamin’s art are photographs taken by the artist’s parents and family members. In the 1950s\, Siona Benjamin’s parents\, Judah and Sophie Benjamin\, traveled across India photographing synagogues and houses of prayer\, capturing the range and diversity of the Indian Jewish community: from splendid metropolitan synagogues to small rural prayer halls. The cache of photographs in Siona Benjamin’s possession thus documents an aspect of Jewish history\, now threatened by oblivion. \nLike Siona Benjamin’s art\, some of the old family photographs underscore how much the life and culture of Jews in India were very much of India. Henna\, saris\, glass lamps of synagogue lights meld with modern suits and classic fedoras becoming one. Indian and Jewish\, traditional and modern–all form a distinct Indian Jewish identity. \nThe exhibit was made possible by the Hadassah Weiner Fund for Jewish Art and was curated by Amy Levine-Kennedy\, Mallory Roof FCRH ‘26\, and Magda Teter. The exhibit will be on view from January 30 until March 28\, 2025 in the Henry S. Miller Judaica Research Room on the 4th floor of the Walsh Family Library.

SUMMARY:“Henna\, Love\, and Light: Jewish Life and Art in Siona Benjamin’s India”
DESCRIPTION:In 2011\, Siona Benjamin\, an intercultural artist born in India to a Bene Israel Jewish community\, returned to her country of birth on a Fulbright India-US fellowship. During her stay\, she traveled across the country\, conducting research and interviewing Jews in India. “Henna\, Love\, and Light: Jewish Life and Art in Siona Benjamin’s India” brings to Fordham several pieces from Siona Benjamin’s series of photo-collage paintings\, “Faces: Weaving Indian Jewish Narratives.” These pieces serve as anchors that link the present and the past.

SUMMARY:'Wartime Beauty' at Refuge Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Step into the Refuge Gallery to view Mariupol Deisis (2022)\, a striking series of 11 icons from Atlantova and Klymenko’s Icons on Ammo Boxes project. The “Wartime Beauty” exhibition is a collaboration between the Refuge Gallery and C-Icon Art Gallery. \nThe Refuge Gallery is open during regular business hours Monday-Thursday. Please ring the institute’s bell to enter the building. Guided tours are available upon request at schapnin@fordham.edu of The Orthodox Christian Studies Center at Fordham University (OCSC). \n“Wartime Beauty“\nThe Orthodox Christian Studies Center at Fordham University (OCSC) has unveiled a milestone exhibition\, “Wartime Beauty\,” marking a historic moment for contemporary Christian art from Ukraine. Curated by Sergei Chapnin\, the exhibition presents recent works by Ukrainian iconographers Sofia Atlantova and Oleksandr Klymenko\, highlighting unique blend of traditional iconography in a modern context. \nThis exhibition is a collaboration between The Refuge Gallery and C-Icon Art Gallery and signifies a shared commitment to exploring contemporary interpretations of Christian art and supporting the Ukrainian people in their quest for freedom and independence. At the heart of the exhibition is Mariupol Deisis (2022)\, a striking series of 11 icons from Atlantova and Klymenko’s Icons on Ammo Boxes project. \nChapnin explains\, “Their work departs from certain Byzantine iconographic conventions\, not as a rejection\, but as a bold reimagining of Eastern Orthodox tradition\, reminding us of the enduring desire for beauty that resonates with prayer.” The artists encourage viewers to look beyond the rough\, unrefined wood of the ammo boxes\, signaling that the spiritual authenticity of their work emerges through each viewer’s perception. \nSince its inception amid Ukraine’s struggle in 2014\, Icons on Ammo Boxes has reshaped how sacred art\naddresses themes of suffering and resilience. In a time of conflict\, holy icons—traditional symbols of holiness and the communion of saints in the Orthodox Christian tradition—reflect the fractures of war yet continue to declare the abiding presence of God\, His Holy Mother\, and the Saints alongside human anguish. \n“It was a true blessing to bring these icons from Ukraine\, and we hope the exhibition will inspire Fordham’s faculty\, students\, and guests\,” said Sergei Chapnin\, the exhibit’s curator. \nThis exhibition not only celebrates the collaboration between OCSC and The Refuge Gallery but also sets a foundation for future explorations of Christian art in a changing world. Sergei Chapnin noted\, “It was a true blessing to bring these icons from Ukraine\, and we hope the exhibition will inspire Fordham’s faculty\, students\, and guests\, as well as audiences in other U.S. cities and universities.” \n

SUMMARY:Chester Higgins Photography Exhibit ‘The Intimacy of Prayer’
DESCRIPTION:With his camera\, Chester Higgins “wrestles with issues of memory\, place\, and identity.” He sees his life as a narrative and his photography as its expression. His art gives visual voice to his personal and collective memories. It is inside ordinary moments where he finds windows into larger meaning. Light\, perspective\, and points in time are the pivotal elements he uses to reveal an interior presence within his subjects as he searches for what he identifies as the Signature of the Spirit. The work of Chester Higgins challenges us to see the full breadth of our humanity. \nThrough his portraits and studies of living rituals\, traditional ceremonies\, and the monuments and ruins of ancient civilizations\, viewers gain a rare insight into cultural behavior—a window to another place and time. \nThese images featured in Butler Gallery were taken in the United States\, Africa\, and the MENA region. \nHiggins was recently honored with his induction into the International Photography Hall of Fame. In 2014 he retired from The New York Times as a staff photographer after 38 years of contributing images to the paper. \nTo contact the Refuge Gallery: refugegallery@fordham.edu.

DESCRIPTION:Come see Kentucky\, opening on Thursday\, November 14 at Pope Auditorium at Fordham’s Lincoln Center campus! \nLeah Nanako Winkler’s wry\, refreshing\, and playfully theatrical Kentucky is the second production of the MainStage 2025-26 season.

SUMMARY:“Blue Like Me”: An Evening with Siona Benjamin
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the exhibit “Yearning to Breathe: The Art of Siona Benjamin” at Fordham Univerisity’s Walsh Family and Quinn Libraries\, we invite you to join us for a screening of the documentary Blue Like Me\, profiling the Indian-American artist Siona Benjamin. Raised in the small Bene Israel Jewish community in Mumbai\, India\, Benjamin’s art fuses world religions with eastern myths and western pop culture to create vibrant new worlds. Blue Like Me travels with Siona to Mumbai\, revisiting the Bene Israel Jews portrayed in her recent Fulbright project. Benjamin is a daughter of Israel\, born of India\, and a citizen of the world—and that world is blue. \nBenjamin is originally from Bombay\, and now lives and works in Montclair\, New Jersey. Her work reflects her background of being brought up Jewish in a predominantly Hindu and Muslim India. In her paintings\, she combines the imagery of her past with the role she plays in America today\, making a mosaic inspired by both Indian miniature paintings and Jewish and Christian illuminated manuscripts.
