How does the Jewish and African-American experience intersect? For Black History Month, we examined works in the Jewish Museum Collection that speak to the past, present, and future of blackness in the United States and around the world, including American painter Kehinde Wiley’s project The World Stage: Israel, comprised of portraits of young Israeli men of diverse backgrounds: Ethiopian-Israeli Jews, native-born Jews, and Arab-Israelis. For this portrait of Alios Itzhak, Wiley adapted a cut-out nineteenth-century Ukrainian mizrah from the Jewish Museum’s own collection as the background for the figure.
