Yaniv Shapira Booth

Jeweler Yaniv Shapira's booth in the Yavna Bazaar, April 2007. You can see his new marvelous candleholders, which were designed according to researcher Uri Ofir's theory that in the Tabernacle the Menorah Candle Holders were made by the Lord in the shape of the Star of David. At the end of Yaniv Shapira's Booth you can see Yevu Yashi's booth with the Organza lampshades and the 3D folded paper Star of David lampshades. Photo is courtesy of Yaniv Shapira.

Yaniv Shapira's Candle Holder on You Tube

Watch the Star of David shadow of the white lily on Yaniv Shapira’s 40 seconds video on You Tube. Yaniv Shapira made this work under the influence of Uri Ofir's research about the Jewish origin of the Star of David from the Menorah in the Tabernacle, where the candle holder had the shape of the Star of David. The shadows of these stars are also in the shape of the Jewish national emblem. Imagine the Cohen Gadol (High priest) entering the Dvir once a year and seeing seven Star of David shadows on the floor...

Yaniv Shapira Copper Candle Holder

This original Copper Candle Holder is the new creation of Jeweler Yaniv Shapira who had a booth next to our Yevu Yashir booth in the Yavna Bazaar which lasted two days and ended yesterday. The Candle Holder is inspired by Uri Ofir's research which claims that the Candle Holders of the Tabernacle Menorah were made by the Lord in Star of David shape. Photo is courtesy of Yaniv Shapira.

Yaniv Shapira Chuppah

Picture is courtesy of Yaniv Shapira who made this chuppah (wedding canopy) and shows it now in the Star of David Exhibition in Yavne Gallery, which opened on the 23 March 2007. Yaniv Shapira told me that he hires this Chuppah for weddings all over Israel. He himself married his wife under this chuppah. I hope that couples that make their weddings abroad will also have the opportunity to marry under this original chuppah.

Yaniv Shapira Menorah

Picture is courtesy of Yaniv Shapira who made this work under the influence of Uri Ofir's research about the Jewish origin of the Star of David from the Menorah in the Tabernacle, where the candleholders had the shape of the Star of David. The shadows of these stars are also in the shape of our national emblem, with -and even without- lighted candles. The body of this original menorah looks to me like a shofar (ram's horn) and this effect doubles the Jewishness of this whole masterpiece. The work is one of about 30 items presented now in the Star of David Exhibition in Yavne Gallery, which was opened on 23 March 2007. Curator is Roni Reuven.

This is an embroidery made by Israeli artist Shosh Segev especially for the Star of David exhibition in Yavne Gallery which opened yestarday. 
The reflection in the glass of the frame shows me taking the photo and the Star-of-David-Chuppa created by artist Yaniv Shapira.

Copper Star of David

Yaniv Shapira's copper Star of David on Yevu Yashir's Booth in Binyaney Hauma, International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem (ICEJ) Fair, Tabernacles 2007. We brought them supposing they fit Christmas trees, but found out that the customers belong to denominations that don't celebrate with a Christmas tree. It was like trying to sell combs in a world convention of bald men.

Memory-Wall

An army emblem inside the hexagon of a Star of David on a memory wall dedicated to Israeli soldiers who lost their lives in order to save us (that's what the Hebrew caption says). Yaniv Shapira sent me this picture.
