AN UNFINISHED WORK OF ART (PODCAST)

A fascinating exhibition in New York showcasing “unfinished” and “non-finito” works of art presents us with a remarkable insight into a glaring contradiction in the final reckoning of everything raised in the campaign to collect raw materials to build the Mishkan.

Rabbi Dunner looks into the background of unfinished art, citing some fascinating examples, and presents a delightful Ohr Hachaim that balances the human striving for perfection with the realities of our temporariness and incompleteness within God’s creation.
