L’Chaim!

L’Chaim! is inspired by a series of exhibitions of commissioned artwork for the Jewish Museum lobby. Inaugurated in 2012 with an installation by Lawrence Weiner, a diverse group of artists presented their work in our most public-facing space. The artists’ projects greeted visitors upon first entering our doors, and were visible from both inside and outside the Museum, whether we were open or closed. We invite you to join us for a drink and a conversation, to connect with the artists who have exhibited in our lobby and special exhibitions, and who have brought meaning and life to the Jewish Museum.

Andrea Bowers was included in the exhibitions Take Me (I’m Yours) (2016-17) and The Arcades: Contemporary Art and Walter Benjamin (2017).

Bowers is an artist + activist based in Los Angeles. Her practice includes explicitly political works that span drawing, video, and installation—dealing with the struggle for gender, racial, environmental, and immigration justice. She has recently had solo exhibitions at the Museum Abteiberg, Germany (2020) and the Weserburg Museum für moderne Kunst, Germany (2019). Her work can be found in the collections at MoMA NY, The Whitney Museum, The Hirshhorn, MoCA LA, and others.
