Curator: Amichai Chasson | Assistant Curator: Rika Grinfeld BarneaBeit Avi Chai presents the exhibition “You Must Choose Life – That is Art,” which includes dozens of selected works from the estate of the Israel Prize for Painting-winning artist Pinchas Litvinovsky, one of the founding fathers of Israeli art and a prolific Jerusalem painter, whose works are seeing the light of day for the first time in 30 years. The extensive exhibition spread over the three floors of Beit Avi Chai showcases the varied styles Litvinovsky worked with – from enchanted orientalism through Jewish themes and portraits of elected officials to abstract and diverse color works.Litvinovsky was not part of any artistic group; he rarely exhibited his works and never dated or named them. Apart from portraiture, he usually avoided selling his pieces. After his death, the painter’s estate numbered over 6,000 works, held in his studio in Jerusalem. However, the estate encountered various hardships over the years, culminating in a terrible destruction by the painter’s grandson, which reduced the thousands of works to only a few hundred. The exhibition “You Must Choose Life – That is Art” highlights the best of the remaining pieces, showcasing various playful, sensual, and spiritual artistic facets of Pinchas Litvinovsky’s legacy.The exhibition will feature an interactive stand, “Make yourself a Litvinovsky AI portrait,” where visitors can create their own Litvinovsky-style portrait using AI (Design: Alon Chitayat, software development: Avinoam Cooper).

A moving tour of the Museum of Tolerance Jerusalem | en

Join a contemporary and moving tour of two fascinating exhibitions on display at the Museum of Tolerance: "06:29 - From Darkness to Light" and "Documenting Israel: Visions of 75 Years."

The exhibition is both a direct continuation of the Museum's permanent exhibition, “06:29 – From Darkness to Light” which shares the testimonies of 35 courageous women who survived the horrors of October 7th and also reflects the beginning of love and renewal.The couples photographed form a mosaic of young and old, IDF soldiers, new immigrants, a formerly religious Jew, injured and widowed. Their stories begin with a chance meeting in the lobby of a retirement home, a late-night conversation in a tank, a cigarette on the battlefield, a harrowing encounter in a safe room in the Gaza envelope with a terrorist. The exhibition features two portraits of each couple: The first captures the pain they experienced, while the second reflects their choice of love.During the photography sessions, the couples spoke openly and candidly about the blessing of finding love in difficult times. They expressed a sense of mission in sharing their stories and hoped to instill a spirit of inspiration and optimism in all of us. We’re grateful to them for entrusting us with their stories.Concept creator and curator: Ifat Shomrony Photographer: Limor Tzadok

The photography exhibition “Love in the Shadow of War”, created for Tu B’Av, presents eight portraits of couples whose love stories blossomed amid the Swords of Iron War. Within a reality of fear, loss, and uncertainty, these couples found rare moments of closeness, connection, and love.


My Life at the Moment is a new exhibition presented at Beit Avi Chai, bringing together works by five prominent Jerusalem artists created during an extended period of war and uncertainty.Participating artists: Meydad Eliyahu · Raya Bruckenthal · Noga Greenberg · Elkana Levi · Alon KedemThe exhibition examines how wartime reality, both on the home front and at the front lines, has influenced local artistic creation. The works were produced over two intense years, from the surprise attack and massacre on Simchat Torah 5784 through to the ceasefire on the eve of Simchat Torah 5786, a period marked by continuous tension and emotional upheaval.The events of these years could have filled decades of history in many other places. Here, they intersected with artistic practice in varied ways, sometimes directly responding to current events and at other times addressing them through abstraction, metaphor, and emotional resonance. The exhibition presents works in painting, drawing, photography, and print, offering insight into the artists’ creative processes during moments of instability.These works serve as a window into the artistic studio, revealing instinctive responses and personal reflections shaped by a reality that breached even the most protected creative spaces. Together, they document moods, questions, and emotional states that emerged as artists navigated daily life alongside national trauma.The exhibition’s title is drawn from a line by Jerusalem poet Israel Eliraz, from his book Is Clarification Expected. Eliraz’s writing encourages viewing reality through art, isolating a single moment with all of its contradictions and emotional weight. This perspective guides the exhibition, presenting a snapshot of life as it is experienced now, after two years of war that has not fully ended. As Eliraz wrote, “the account is yet to be settled.” This is life at the moment.The exhibition is accompanied by guided tours in English and gallery talks on selected dates.Opening Hours: Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday: 10:00–18:00 Late Night Mondays: 10:00–22:00 Friday: 09:00–13:00
