Ewa Kędziora

I am a PhD student in the field of Art Studies at the University of Warsaw (Poland). My work focuses specifically on the visual turn in the modern Jewish culture in relation to Zionist narrations, the processes of creation of the visual culture in Israel, and the formation of particular iconographic codes. My PhD thesis, tentatively entitled “Iconography of the Coast in the Visual Culture in Israel: Historical, Political, and Social Aspects” is planned to be a cross-section of the motif recognition in regard to issues such as emigration, modernity, and postcolonialism.
