-Reb Yoel Tordjman zt’l
Dedicated to sharing Inspiration from the Artist Yoel Tordjman
“The Bridge” is a compilation of beautiful and deep discussions with the artist Yoel Tordjman, collected over the last 25 years. It guides us to see through our world’s first level of illusion, to deeper truths underneath. It holds up and gently unveils a soft mirror, which allows us to observe our beautiful divine Soul within. From that place of higher consciousness, we are able (perhaps for the first time), to see the world from the expanded vision of Hashem. In that place, there are no more questions, no more conflicts, because suddenly everything makes sense, and all the pieces of the jigsaw of life fit perfectly together. It’s from that point of divine clarity that we are able to “reach out and touch another’s soul” and to bridge a relationship with our Creator by connecting with His other creations.
With your generous support, we can complete the editing and publication of the English translation of The Bridge, Conversations with the Artist Yoel Tordjman
One of the most ambitious, inspirational and world-embracing art projects of this century is in preparation. French-Israeli painter and graphic artist Yoel Tordjman has gathered 613 of his internationally-acclaimed works and arranged for them all to be mounted on twelve of the great bridges of our planet to create an art event to bring together all humanity.
The bridge is a powerful symbol of connection between people, facilitating communication, commerce and community. The total 613 represents the number of divine ethical commandments of the Torah that are themselves bridges connecting the heavenly and human worlds. And art itself is the great bridge between people, connecting heart to heart, mind to mind, spirit to spirit.
The entire collection of 613 paintings will be displayed on each of twelve bridges in turn, offering a context of dramatically sweeping vistas from around the world. Each of the installations will be recorded in detail by drone photography and made available on the internet – itself a bridge between cultures.
Yoel Tordjman’s art is the perfect vehicle for this event. As a visual artist, his essential medium is light. His method reveals not only the play of light on surface but the light that illuminates from within. Combining macro-photography, digital art and over-painting techniques with hundreds of translucent micro layers of colored media, his work is imbued with exceptional precision, radiant energy and shimmering, luminous depth.
