The exhibition features 14 large-scale paintings from the contemporary American painter Kehinde Wiley's newest series, 'The World Stage: Israel.' The vibrant portraits of Israeli youths from diverse ethnic and religious affiliations are each embedded in a unique background influenced by Jewish ceremonial art. Also included are 11 works - papercuts and large textiles - chosen by the artist from The Jewish Museum's collection. All of the 14 paintings on view are being displayed in New York for the first time
