Siena's splendid synagogue is having a busy cultural summer. After the interesting guided tour and talk organized by the Siena Art Institute with Israeli artist Avital Cnaani last week, the synagogue hosts a video performance called A Jewish Opera by Davide Casali.
The video performance allows a glimpse into the rhythms of Jewish life, which is divided by the reciting and singing of the three daily prayers - Shachrit, Mincha and Arvit.
A Jewish Opera will be installed in the women's gallery of Siena's synagogue and has already been on show in Trieste and at the Jewish Museum of Venice.
SIENA SYNAGOGUE - A JEWISH OPERA by DAVIDE CASALI
Opening in the presence of the artist and participating musicians: 31st of July, 9 pm
The installation can be visited from the 1st to the 31st of August 2103 from 10.30 am to 3 pm (Monday to Friday) and from 10.30 am to 5.30 pm on Sunday. Closed on Saturday.
