Judaica is an annual publication of the Department of
Jewish Art at Bar-Ilan University. It showcases the Jewish contribution to the
visual arts and architecture from antiquity to the present from a variety of
perspectives, including history, iconography, semiotics, psychology, sociology,
and folklore. As such it is a valuable resource for art historians, collectors,
curators, and all those interested in the visual arts.
