He had over sixty one-person shows and was the recipient of many awards, including Tiffany, Guggenheim and National Arts Council grants.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>Landau\u2019s art, devoted to the \u201cadvocacy of the human,\u201d which entails \u201crevelation of the tragic\u201d and \u201chope of transcendence,\u201d embodies a vision of justice for women. Powerfully and subtly erasing inherited gender boundaries, it triumphs. In his watercolor AS ABOVE \u00a0SO BELOW he gives us an unforgettable vision of the \u201cpatterned energy\u201d that is the just relation between sexes. We see masculine \u201cincompleteness\u201d and feminine \u201cimperfection\u201d in balanced unity. The man below and the woman above, declaring together: \u201cI and thou we create each other.\u201d And by this creation of the human imagination we are convinced of its truth.\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>The exhibition features a selection of twelve pieces. All works are from Monmouth University\u2019s extensive collection of Jacob Landau\u2019s work, comprising over 300 prints, drawings and paintings. The collection was gifted to Monmouth University in 2008 by the Jacob Landau Institute of Roosevelt, NJ. This exhibit is co-sponsored by the Jewish Culture Studies Program and the Honors School of Monmouth University.\u00a0<\/div>\n<p><strong>Opening Reception: Monday, April 10, 2017 from 4:30 \u2013 6:00 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p title=\"temporary paragraph, click here to add a new paragraph\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<div><strong>Docent tours are available (for times, contact Professor Noel Belinski 732-263-5425; email: <a title=\"Jacob Landau Docent Tour\" href=\"mailto:nbelinsk@monmouth.edu?subject=Jacob Landau Docent Tour\">nbelinsk@monmouth.edu<\/a>).<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Monmouth University Galleries opens an exhibition of works exploring the theme of justice for women by American artist, humanist, and teacher Jacob Landau.
