COVER ARTIST
— Several readers made it a point to make sure we knew KC native Andi Arnovitz is mentioned in the January/February 2020 issue of Hadassah Magazine. The internationally acclaimed artist moved to Israel in 1999 and is mentioned in Hadassah Magazine for her role with the Living Under Water project, which culminated in a 60-page e-zine. The e-zine was edited and created by Arnovitz and Shaul Bass. The project was created under the auspices of Beit Venezia — A Home for Jewish Culture and is described as “the tangible result of a three week artist’s residency in Venice 2018” where, according to Hadassah magazine, they explored the Jewish response to climate change. The cover of the e-zine, described as “an ark sinking below the water, a stark commentary on the rising sea levels that are one symptom of climate change,” is an Arnovitz creation as is the back cover.
