Alefbet—Lexicon No. 4

Russian-born Grisha Bruskin immigrated to the United States in 1988. The themes of both Judaism and communism are central to his work, and he is also known for sculpture and ceramic pieces. Bruskin’s work is found in collections including the Art Institute of Chicago, the Israel Museum, the Jewish Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, and the State Russian Museum. In 1999, he was invited to Germany to create his triptych Life above All for the Reichstag in Berlin.
