'Abandoned Daughter, Lost Daughter': Angelica Schatz at the Tel Aviv Museum of Art

The work of Angelica Schatz (1897-1975) is appearing in what promises to be a powerful exhibit at the Tel Aviv of Art Museum.
Born in Sofia, Bulgaria she was the "lost daughter" of Boris Schatz, founder of
Bezalel. (Bezalel was an early 20th century art school in Jerusalem based on the concept of the Russian arts and crafts school and workshop. Its motto was "art is the bud, craft is the fruit.") The exhibition unfolds her tragic character,her oeuvre and her fascinating correspondence with her father, from whom she was separated at an early age. Most of the paintings from her recently discovered estate were restored at the Museum's restoration laboratories.
