The national Israeli Cartoon Museum in Holon has opened an in-person exhibit, “Yiddishpitz,” that highlights the influence of Yiddish literature and culture on Israeli comic artists.
Curated by cartoonists Nimrod Reshef and Rachel Achunov, the exhibit features 63 comics, caricatures and illustrations.
The exhibit is the culmination of a multiyear initiative. In 2018, Israel’s National Cartoonist Association launched a contest to encourage comic artists in Israel and abroad to create new works inspired by Yiddish culture. In particular, organizers sought comics portraying Yiddish proverbs and idioms, new illustrations to accompany translations of Yiddish children’s books and caricatures of Yiddish literary and cultural figures.
