Rafael Klein — 'A Wanderer'
Exhibition continues until 4 June 2021
‘A Wanderer’ is the second exhibition of the shul and gallery space at 36 Upper Street in Angel. The establishment of 36 Upper Street is particularly significant, given that Islington has not had a synagogue in over 50 years. The establishment of a rotating gallery in the same space as the congregation is also of great significance. Alongside the debut of Rafael Klein’s new body of work, the gallery is currently exhibiting work by London-based Jewish artists David Hochhauser and Beverley-Jane Stewart.
