This work is based on various works I have made throughout my 50 years as an artist, all of which are major in themselves. It is a work I feel very deeply about and its subject matter I take very seriously. I called it “Current Affairs” because it speaks about today as much as about the history of mankind. This piece is the story of human struggles and triumphs throughout the ages.

I took 5 IRL paintings and strung them digitally, like a story, a scroll, a giant mural, that unites their meaning into a poignant message.

The paintings in order of appearance:
The Selecting Hand, 1986, 78"x224" oil on canvas
The Hill, Jerusalem, 1985, collection of the Yeshiva UniversityMuseum, The Center for Jewish History NY, 78"x224" oil on canvas
Cripples, 1984, in private collection, 78"x100" oil on canvas
Extension, 1987, 78"x200" oil on canvas
Deposition, 1987, 78"x200" oil on canvas
