To: liberation@igc.org Hi Dan,
The other posters are probably more cultural, though they do have political relevance.
Here are translations of the posters:
The Uri Zvi Greenberg Poster (created for the Uri Zvi Greenberg Heritage Foundation, 2005):
[Going down the left side it reads:]
Uri Zvi Greenberg
The Jerusalem Poet 1896-1981
[Then in the middle it says:]
25 Years Since His Passing
"She is mine-Jerusalem, mine in all glory:
A psalm of David and grief a man of Anatot--"
--[From his poem] "A Song that Jerusalem is His"
[Then the bottom has the phone numbers and address of the Uri Zvi Greenberg Heritage Foundation museum.]
-------
The Tav Chevrati Poster (created for Bema'aglei Tzedek, 2006) http://www.mtzedek.org.il):
One small step for man.
One big step for handicapped man.
57% of the entances to restaurants and coffeehouses in Israel are inaccessible to the handicapped.
[the red stamp reads:]
The Social Seal
to buy and to change
The Social Seal protects workers' rights and ensures accessibility to people with disabilities. For details: 052.429.5415 www.tav.co.il
-------
The Tav Chevrati Poster (created for Bema'aglei Tzedek, 2006) http://www.mtzedek.org.il):
Not everyone is born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
A dishwasher in a restaurant makes less than 12 shekel [approx $3.25] an hour.
[the red stamp reads:]
The Social Seal
to buy and to change
The Social Seal protects workers' rights and ensures accesibility to people with disabilities. For details: 052.429.5415 www.tav.co.il
----------
The calendar page (created for HaKovah HaHafuch, 2009 http://www.hakovah.org/):
Hear, O Israel.
Today in Israel there are 7.4 million people. 7.4 million opinions. 7.4 million dreams. 7.4 million voices. And in order to understand, you need to listen.
[then on the side of the calendar it says the month in both Gregorian and Hebrew dates]
March 2010 Adar-Nissan 5770
-------
The poster with the laundry line and flags reads "Independence Day 2007"
Personal project, 2007
--------
And that is all of them that are relevant.
Thanks for the exposure and have a great day,
Rachel

I changed your nationality to Israeli as you requested.
I really like your graphics/style but for me to add them to the site raises a critical issue for me: my site is a graduate thesis project meant to serve American high school students and teachers. As such, I have to translate and contextualize all the posters I put up at the site. Since all your posters are in Hebrew adding them would generate a ton of new Hebrew translations for my colleagues and I can't do that to them as they are swamped as is.
If you ever translate and contextualize your political/cultural works for an English speaking audience I would add them in a heartbeat.

To: liberation@igc.orgYou can list my nationality as Israeli. I haven't done other political posters, and I am in the process of building my website right now so I don't have a link for you yet (you can see some of my other work though here and here). Thanks again.
