Synopsis
More than just a ticket of entry into the host culture, for a large number of American Jews, humor has become a cornerstone of identity. It is a style of communication, of speaking and even thinking - in short, a coded language used by Jews to mark, perform and sometimes flaunt Jewish difference. The emergency of humor as a Jewish language on stage, in print, in sound, on screen, and in commodity culture is the subject of this exhibition.
