> Some background, from the announcement: As a museum and research center at UC Berkeley, the Magnes generates new knowledge and understanding of Jewish cultures through its permanent collection—one of the largest and internationally most important collections of Jewish art and artifacts—for its academic and public communities. The Magnes envisions a society that seeks common ground while honoring cultural differences and embraces the diversity of Jewish life around the world. Founded in 1962 by Seymour and Rebecca Camhi Fromer and integrated into UC Berkeley in 2010, the Magnes has continued to expand, receiving two of the four largest gifts of art in UC Berkeley history: the Taube Family Arthur Szyk Collection in 2017 and the Roman Vishniac Archive in 2018. The museum’s approximately 60,000 holdings include representational and abstract works of art, as well as thousands of objects representing personal and family rituals, synagogue and communal life, and social interactions among Jewish and host communities in the global Jewish Diaspora throughout history. Archival and library collections of manuscripts, books, photographs, papers, and institutional records focus on activities of individuals, families, and organizations in Europe and the United States, including the American West. The Magnes is a hub for research, teaching and learning, creative expression, and personal enjoyment for a vibrant community of scholars, students, and patrons. The museum supports teaching and learning on campus and engages students in its curatorial work and other operations, providing academic and professional training in the study of material culture, Jewish studies, museum studies, and more. It creates dynamic programming in collaboration with other university departments, especially the Berkeley Center for Jewish Studies and Helen Diller Institute for Jewish Law and Israel Studies, as well as with local and regional community partners. The Magnes is a part of the Division of Arts and Humanities in the College of Letters and Science and is one of four public-serving museums at UC Berkeley. Zachary Zachary M.
