Zachary Balber: Tamim

Tue 2/11 - Mon 4/20

This photographic series "Tamim" is created through the lens of Zachary Balber, a noted, young, Florida, Jewish photographer whose works are in the collections of the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, the Patricia & Phillip Frost Museum of Art FIU and numerous private collections throughout the United States. These photos present images of men, all Jewish themselves, who whether disenfranchised, marginalized, tormented by hurt or simply for vanity, sought to change their outward appearances. Balber engaged the subjects of the photo series in addressing their own Jewish identities by including his personal Bar Mitzvah Kippah in all of the photos. Some of the photos in the series depict members of Balber’s family who influenced his search for his Jewish identity. Of note, Balber himself has no tattoos.
