Melissa Shiff – Reframing Ritual: Postmodern Jewish Wedding

Catalogue for Canadian artist Melissa Shiff’s project which offers an alternative look at the traditional Jewish wedding ceremony. Led by an effort to enliven the rigid ritual practice that has remained unchanged for centuries and the desire to give it a new meaning that can be sustainable in today’s plurality of opinions and identities, the artist has prepared her own wedding as an experimental ‘live performance’.
