Marking the Ghetto quincentennial, Beit Venezia invited eight international Jewish artists to design a New Venice Haggadah after a full immersion in the city and a residency at the Scuola Internazionale di Grafica. They produced twenty-four beautiful etchings illustrating the Haggadah that were on show at the Jewish Museum of Venice" (Publisher's note). - The Artists: Jacqueline Nicholls, Andi Arnovitz, Josh Baum, Yael David-Cohen, Nathan Gotlib, Sophie Herxheimer, Kyra Matustik and Hillel Smith.
