Scholarship 2016 – Alessandra Passaretti

During the month of July 2016, I completed an internship at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, Israel. I worked mainly in two departments: the Information Center for Israeli Art, where I carried out research within the archive donated to the museum by Bertha Urdang and her daughter Miri Urdang, whom I had the pleasure of meeting; and the Prints and Drawings Department, where I worked with the valuable collection of books and magazines donated to the museum by Arturo Schwartz.
