The Israelis: Faces and Stories of the Middle East

The Israelis: Faces and Stories of the Middle EastBy Mark Tuschman, Photographer Mark Tuschman uses the power of photography to reframe the history of the Jewish people and the place of modern Israel in the world. This exhibit will change perceptions as viewers see that half of the Jews arriving during Israel’s formation came as refugees directly from their ancient homes in the Middle East, and the other half were scattered across the world for centuries before returning to their homeland and reviving their indigenous language. The exhibit depicts the country’s diverse populations, particularly those groups whose identities are virtually ignored by international media.
