Jewish artists from all parts of the United States and many foreign countries will be represented in the exhibition to be held by the Jewish Womens’ Art Club at the Jewish People’s Institute in Chicago, from April 20 to April 30.
The entire exposition of work by painters and sculptors of the Hebrew race, now being shown in Detroit, will be brought to Chicago by the club for this exhibition.
More than two hundred works of art are being brought from Detroit. In view of the recent assertion by internationally famous critics that a Jewish art does not exist, the exposition assumes added interest.
