Florentin – from Salonika to Soho
A very loveable article, I did find in the METRO (Jerusalem Post, Friday January 15th) written by Joanna Paraszcur about the Florentin neighborhood in Tel Aviv, founded almost 90 years ago by Greek immigrants: “Florentin – from Salonika to Soho”. The neighborhood is today a new catch for real-estate developers. … Read entire article »

History of newsreels in Tel Aviv
On Friday February 22, 1935 Migdalor Cinema opened its doors at the corner of Allenby and Ben Yehuda Streets in Tel Aviv. It brought a revolution, because newsreels were untill this time only shown occasionally in movie theaters and now the theather was going to show a new newsreel every week. In the first years the Carmel Newsreels were seen by about 22 percent of the Jewish population. Nirit Anderman writes a long but absolutely readable story about Migdalor Cinema and Carmel Newsreels in Haaretz. Very much recommended! … Read entire article »

Museum or wedding hall?
The Tel Aviv Museum of Art will host another ‘society‘ wedding on its premises this month. It looks like that the museum-director prof. Mordechai Omer is using the museum the last few month as a private ‘playground’ for his elite-friends. Seven month ago he used the museum for the wedding of Erez Navon, the son of former president Yitzhak Navon (rent for the space was $25.000 ) and this month, January 25th, the wedding will take place of the daughter of Hanina Brandes (law firm Naschitz Brandes). I understand that the museum is using his premises for video-art parties, jazz-concerts e.g.: we are talking about art!! But what has a ‘society’ wedding to do with art? During the last wedding the museum closed its doors to the … Read entire article »

Exhibition of fire marks
Again on Ha’aetz.com there is a very interesting story [LINK] about so called fire marks from Israel. I was quite intrigued by this story. These fire (insurance) marks were the sign that insurance was payed for the specific building and in the British Mandate period quite common. Until February 25 the fire marks are on display at the HerzLilienblum Museum in Tel Aviv, next to fire fighting equipment from the early days of the state. Nice! … Read entire article »
