"Must-see show" — NOW Magazine, January 14, 2010

Developed for the Koffler Gallery by guest curator Cyril Reade and
presented in a former residential space, this exhibition brings together
four artists who come from diverse cultural backgrounds and work in a
variety of media. In their respective practices, Rita Bakacs, Susan Lakin,
Ross Racine and Allen Topolski often examine architectural and domestic
environments, attempting to decode cultural specificity within a
homogenizing context. Although not Jewish, the artists were invited to
reflect on the fluidity of Jewish identity in North America, taking as
departure points the shared experiences of community, individuality,
displacement, continuity and assimilation to examine connections and
differences.
