Psalm Museum

The Jerusalem Museum of Psalms presents a unique art collection that opens up new amazing images for visitors. During the inspection of the exhibition, it becomes clear how complex and painstaking the work of the artist is. One by one, there are plots from the Psalms of David, which the author created for seven years.

The author of this amazing exhibition is a rabbi artist named Moshe Zvi Ha-Levi Berger. His life story is amazing. Born in 1924 in Transylvania, survived the concentration camps, miraculously survived. After the war he became a doctor and worked very successfully in medicine. But once he decided to change his life, and in 1957 he went to Paris to learn the craft of an artist, studied in France, Italy, the United States.

With the arrival in America, the artist’s career literally began to take off. During these years he began to study Torah and Kabbalah, and became famous as the author of several huge wall paintings on various buildings in Florida and Brooklyn. Each of the artist’s works was devoted to plots on Kabbalistic themes. He soon embarked on a long project to artistically incarnate King David’s Psalms from the great Book of Theilim, which has accompanied the Jewish people for thousands of years. As a result, a series of unique paintings appeared, which became the basis of the museum collection.
