Veiled Meanings: Fashioning Jewish Dress, from the Collection of The Israel Museum, Jerusalem
Tour the exhibit at the Contemporary Jewish Museum
This exhibition invites us to consider the history and language of Jewish clothing in all its complexity, from cultural dress codes to modes of self-expression.
Through many sartorial symbols and signifiers, these items disclose information about gender, age, geography, background, and custom, while simultaneously leaving some meanings fluid or encoded.
