Gate to the Knesset 1971

"Gate to the Knesset" is a 1971 lithograph by Louis Lozowick, a prominent American artist known for his cityscapes and abstract works. The lithograph depicts the Knesset building, the seat of the Israeli parliament, framed by bold, angular forms in red and black. The image is fragmented, emphasizing the building's architectural elements rather than its entirety, suggesting a sense of both confinement and openness. Lozowick's use of geometric shapes and graphic lines adds a sense of dynamism and energy to the work, creating a powerful and symbolic representation of the Knesset and its role in Israeli society.
