Jerusalem Comes to Davis!

This is Jerusalem as you’ve only imagined it, captured in spirit as much as in substance through the painstaking lens work of a master photographic artist. London artist Beni Rubinstein’s photographs of the Old City are a duet in black and white, both harmonizing and contrasting the divine with the mundane, balancing the magnificence of this sacred spot with the simple basics of the people within it. An old man, fatigued from walking, sits off-centered amongst ancient walls, weighted by grocery bags. He is a vessel for meaning: a time worn man among timeless walls, finding rest and comfort in their shelter, and perhaps in the knowledge that they will live longer than he. Come enter the archways, the enclaves, the hidden passageways for yourself.
