The Rebbe Series:
In the Footsteps of the Shtetl
Paintings by Connecticut artist, Stephen B. Henderson

Feb 9 - March 25, 2011

Revolving around a central character, the Rebbe, this series explores everyday life in the in the shtetles of Eastern Europe during the late 19th and early 20th century. Each work is unique, but shares the common theme of spiritual joy as expressed in a surrealistic interpretation of traditional Jewish folktales. While some paintings show specific religious holidays, others focus on the simplicity of the Rebbe’s life. Most of the works have been painted in acrylics or oils, however, drawings and watercolors are also included in the series.
