The most dramatic difference between these two is the element of time. While working on a visual piece, the artist sees the work in its entirety during its creation, with each addition and change visible as soon as they happen.<\/p>\n<p>Not so with writing. Reading the written words requires time; once they are written and as the writer continues writing, the first text recedes, allowing for the new words to appear. The writer cannot see all the words at one given moment; time is needed to access the story and to become fully aware of its contents.<\/p>\n<p>Conceived as a play in three acts, Pnina\u2019s story unfolds from her Romanian hometown on the Danube River, to art school in Jerusalem, followed by three years spent in the USA, time in Montreal and later in Paris, finally settling in Vancouver. Issues of dislocation, \u2018otherness,\u2019 and the uprooted soul\u2019s wish for permanency and belonging will be discussed.<\/p>\n<p>For the fortunate ones who have not experienced war, fascism and communism, the historical references seen through personal experience might be enlightening and revealing of unfamiliar realities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom my experience as a visual artist, I realised that most people know almost nothing about the creative process and the politics of the art world. This talk will give the listeners a glimpse into this unknown territory,\u201d Pnina explains.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<strong>Making of an Artist, Pnina Granirer, Victoria, BC, May 2, 7 pm, Congregation Emanu-El<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1123\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pninagranirer.com\/newsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/pnina-may-2-300x206.jpg\" alt=\"Making of an artist: Pnina Granirer\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pninagranirer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/pnina-may-2-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pninagranirer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/pnina-may-2.jpg 340w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>You are invited to attend \u201cMaking of an artist: Pnina Granirer\u201d at Congregation Emanu-El Synagogue. Entry is by donation: book signing to follow: light refreshments will be served.<\/p>\n<p>After a long career as a visual artist, Pnina Granirer published her memoir Light Within The Shadows last year. Congregation Emanu-El Adult Education Team invites you to the synagogue on May 2, 2018, at 7 pm when Pnina will share her story with us. Born in Romania in 1935, she moved to Israel in 1950 and came to Canada in 1965. Throughout her life, she has created a large body of art while searching for beauty and spirituality. She will speak to us of her successes and failures and how issues of dislocation, otherness, being a woman and the uprooted soul\u2019s wish for permanency and belonging shaped her art. She will offer us insight into how art is forged and released into the world.<\/p>\n<p>Pnina Granirer has exhibited her work locally, nationally and internationally since 1962. She has shown in more than eighty solo exhibitions. Her work has been included in numerous group exhibitions, and in books and exhibition catalogues in Canada, Israel, Spain, Portugal, Costa Rica and Chile. Her works are found in many private and Public Galleries collections in Canada (some as Cultural Property donations), the US, Chile, Europe and Israel. Recently her triptych Sorrow, Hope, Truth has been hung in Government House, Victoria BC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pnina Will Speak at Bastion Books, Victoria, BC, May 3 at 7 pm Pnina will discuss the various aspects of writing a book \u2014 as opposed to the creation of a painting.
