Ben Schachter combines Jewish thought and Contemporary Art. He sees a similarity between the restrictions conceptual artists created for themselves that limited and guided their work and Jewish law. Most recently, his work was on view at the Hebrew Union College. He lives in Pittsburgh with his wife and two children.
