“Lady Liberty: A Bonnie Lautenberg Retrospective,” which runs through March 26 at the Jewish Museum of Florida-FIU, showcases 30 pieces of Hadassah life-member Bonnie Lautenberg’s digital and photo collages and photography taken from different series, most of them of powerful and impactful women.⁠
⁠
Among the timely new pieces is "Tears of Roe," an image of the Statue of Liberty with tears running down her cheeks that is part of @bonnie_lautenberg's pop-art inspired “Lady Liberty” series. The artist created "Tears of Roe" in June 2022, she said, to channel her emotional reaction after the overturning of Roe v. Wade.⁠
⁠
“Bonnie’s works cause us to stop and think about the issues facing our world today,” said Susan Gladstone Pasternack, executive director of @jmof_fiu. “While the content of her work is not specifically Jewish, her subject matter, especially 'Tears of Roe', manifests the Jewish concept of tikkun olam.”⁠
