Back wrapper lacking. own for his World War II anti-Nazi political art and his beloved Passover Haggadah, 20th century artist Arthur Szyk single-handedly revived the medieval tradition of illumination. A master of miniature painting and calligraphy, Szyk brought his unmistakable style to subjects as diverse as biblical stories, literary classics, and political caricature and cartoon. Many of his works were published as limited edition fine art books and as editorials in periodicals such as Collier's, Esquire, TIME, and The New York Post. Other popular works, such as his celebrated Declaration of Independence of the United States, were reproduced and widely distributed as fine art prints. A self-described "soldier in art," Szyk was a committed activist-artist, advocating for religious tolerance and racial equality for minorities, especially for Jews and black Americans. Today, collectors around the globe prize Szyk's art for its vibrant imagery and messages, which remain as stunning and timely as ever.Moishe Broderzon (November 23, 1890 Moscow - August 17, 1956 Warsaw) was a Yiddish poet, theatre director, and the founder of the Lodz literary group Yung-yidish. In 1891 his family was among the Jews expelled from Moscow. His father moved to Lodz, his mother took her children to her father's home in Nesvizh (now in Belarus). In 1900, the family was reunited in Lodz. He became a bookkeeper and began writing short narratives in the Yiddish press. In 1914 he issued a collection of his poems called Shvartse fliterlekh (Black Spangles). He was a founder of Yung-Yidish artists collaborative. Broderson's extravagant appearance made an impression on the Yiddish cultural circles organized around the Yiddish and Hebrew writer Yitschak Katzenelson. Broderzon had long, thick black hair, Pushkin-style sideburns, and a black shirt characteristic of a Russian worker. He was the only poet in Lodz to wear amber and coral necklaces, and rings on his fingers. When the Germans invaded Lodz Broderson and his wife fled to Moscow, became Russian citizens, and began publishing his poetry in the Yiddish press. With friends he established the Krayzl fun Yidish Natsyonaler Estetik (Circle for Jewish National Aesthetic). In 1918 he founded (with El Lissitzky, and writers Daniel Tsharni, Gershon Broyde, and Menashe Halpern) the Moscow Circle of Jewish Writers and Artists. In 1918 he returned to Lodz and was a founder of the literary group Yung-yidish, which published a journal of the same name. The journal featured poetry, prose, and experimental art. His wife, Sheyne-Miryam, was an actress famed for a chasidic dance routine. Broderzon founded several theatres in Lodz: In 1922, with Yekhezkl-Moyshe Nayman, Yitschok Broyner, and Henech Kon he created the Yiddish Marionette Theater Khad Gadyo (Chad-gadye, Khad-gadye), and Shor habor, a variety theater. In 1924 he and Henekh Kon wrote the music for the first Yiddish opera performed in Warsaw, Dovid un Basheve (David and Bathseba), performed in Warsaw's Kaminski Theater; he wrote a libretto for the opera Monish based on I. L. Peretz's epic romantic poem. In 1926 he began writing for the Azazel theater cafe in Warsaw. In 1927 he was one of the founders of the kleynkunst stage Ararat in Lodz, an experimental theater that featured the actors Shimon Dzigan and Israel Shumacher. He often wrote articles about Yiddish theater. His final lyrics, which appeared in 1939 with the single letter Yud as title, comprise 50 poems of 16 lines each, laden with tragic premonitions of the end of Polish Jewry in a coming world catastrophe. He was arrested in 1950, sentenced to a Siberian prison, was released in 1956 and died a month later.
