Menachem Kahana: Charedim (The Ultra-Orthodox)
Exhibition at the Eretz Israel Museum, Tel-Aviv

This exhibition reminds me a book of the Hungarian photographer Tamás Féner (Corvina, 1984) on a very similar subject, Jewish customs and ceremonies in Hungary

However, there are differences. The exhibition shows a living community, while the photos taken in Hungary some 25 years ago are sad and show a kind of vanishing world.
Besides the fact that Menachem Kahana creates fine and real photographs some of them I consider as a masterpiece of art. Two examples:

I really like this image of a Tisch of Belz. A multiple of faces same but different. The contrast of the Rebe, sitting alone. The color of the red wine. The seriousness of those who serve the Rebe. And as the punctum, the face of a boy under the table. Great!

I also really liked this picture of a bride waiting for the dance on her wedding. No physical touch but via a long black string, looks like an umbilical cord. It is a rare photo of showing a real moment which is special in itself and also having several symbolic aspects: loneliness, womanhood, constraints. Touching.
