Calligraphy of Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky

By Elena Novikova

A unique exhibition of Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky's artworks titled “Revival of the Jewish Calligraphic Art” took place in Jewish Community Centre in Moscow. Art works of the conspicuous penman won appreciation in Europe and the Americas. A great number of them are in museum collections and private collections all over the world. And in Russia the works are presented for the first time.
Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky exhibited works presenting different genres of calligraphy - pieces of calligraphic art and illustrated manuscripts. Nevertheless one can hardly introduce Avraham’s works as art of painting. Sacral texts and commandments of the Holy Torah are the basis of scribe’s outstanding art. For instance quotations from Torah, Esther Scroll, blessings, and even a wedding contract come out as genuine masterpieces from the hands of the artist. Parchment is the favorite material of Avraham-Hersh Borshevsky is therefore used for the most of them; for the others he uses papyrus or paper. The artist decorates some of his works with gems and gold. Author of the exhibition says that he aims at revealing the beauty of Jewish calligraphy:” I want people to bedeck their houses with my calligraphic art–pieces, for the holy Torah says “Adorn you in commandment” (Babylonian Talmud, Shabbat, 133). Calligraphy symbolizes destiny of people of Israel, says the artist:” Look at the letters in Hebrew. Every one of them seems to live a life of her own, although an inner relation bonds them together”. At the opening of the exhibition visitors titled the manuscripts “prayers” due to the Torah wisdom essential to every word, and soul which looks through every letter. Avraham says that calligraphy is the means to discover essence of the Holy Torah. “None of my works functions aesthetically only, Word is at the heart of every one of them”.
