*[ZIONISM - FOLK ART] SHIVITI Mixed media, cut and pasted paper, cut and pasted chromolithographs. Hebrew signature printed and pasted lower center: Scherman. Europe, mid-twentieth century. 53 x 44 cm (view) Incredible blend between the religious aspiration represented by Shiviti - namely, the use of phrases such as "Know before whom you stand", "I place God permanently before me" - and the quasi-religious hope in Zionism, characterized by the three Yiddish texts, including the one in the center, all of which evoke Israel's achievements and those of the Jewish National Fund.
