Connecting Disparate Worlds

Arye Carmon, the president of the Israel Democracy Institute, think tank, has been taking photographs for more than 40 years. Only recently, though, has he received recognition for his artwork. Arye Carmon recently visited the Forward’s studio to discuss the recent exhibition of his work at the Max Lang gallery in New York City.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse..
