Contemporary Judaica by Art as Responsa®

Contemporary Judaica by Art as Responsa®

If Art as Responsa® designs breathe new life into Judaica -- Dayenu. If these designs suggest contemporary meaning for ancient religious culture -- Dayenu. If these designs make using ceremonial objects slightly more fun -- Dayenu. Life. Meaning. Fun. Dayenu.

Marsha Plafkin Hurwitz started Art as Responsa® in 1999 with arts-based programs (see, The Bible Lab). Marsha's art expresses her rich background in both studio art and Jewish studies. Marsha began design and aluminum manufacture in 2000 with her signature metal work -- The Eve & Adam Candelabra™.

Marsha designed The Braille Dreidel® (aka, The Braidel®) in 2002. The National Museum of American Jewish History (nmajh) added The Braille Dreidel® to its permanent collection in 2005.

In 2007 Canadian-based Ketubah-Ketubah introduced a series of wedding ketubot based on Marsha's paintings. Click "ketubot" below for a link to these designs. Click here for general licensing inquiries.
