Exhibit: From Russia to America




Misha Livshulz



(note: my review of this show is found here )




Misha's son, Jacob








Misha's father, Chaim

************************************************************************


Nobody wants to spend two weeks, much less a full month, gallery sitting their show -- but Misha has gotten around that by turning the gallery into a studio,
just as he turned his home in Skokie
into the Livshulz Museum














These are my favorite pieces in the show,
two still-lifes
Misha did before moving to America










As Misha explains it,
he had a lot more time
to work on the paintings
he did back in Minsk.
