How did this come about?<\/p><p>The paintings were commissioned by Shorewood Publishers for the 20th anniversary of the state of Israel in 1967. The set is comprised of 25 mixed-media paintings highlighting important religious, historical and political moments in\u00a0Jewish history. The series, called \u201cAliyah, the Rebirth of Israel,\u201d received a special endorsement from Israel\u2019s first prime minister, David Ben-Gurion. Shorewood exhibited the original series in a New York museum, but each piece was then sold to private collectors. Their locations remain largely unknown.<\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4336\" src=\"https:\/\/fozmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/800px-Dali_Allan_Warren.jpg\" alt=\"Salvador Dali\" width=\"300\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fozmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/800px-Dali_Allan_Warren.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fozmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/800px-Dali_Allan_Warren-277x300.jpg 277w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4337\" src=\"https:\/\/fozmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/1024px-Man_Ray_Salvador_Dali.jpg\" alt=\"Salvador Dali\" width=\"350\" height=\"228\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fozmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/1024px-Man_Ray_Salvador_Dali.jpg 350w, https:\/\/fozmuseum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/1024px-Man_Ray_Salvador_Dali-300x195.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/p><p>Fortunately, however, 250 sets of prints of the collection were made, one of which was owned by New York art dealer Hillel Philip, who organized a private showing of selections from the set.in New York City in 2016. \u201cYou have all of Jewish history, all the dreams of the Jews for 2,000 years, in these paintings,\u201d said Philip at the time.<\/p><p>Many people who came to the Philip Show expressed their surprise over the artist\u2019s connection to Judaism. In fact, Dali did not have a connection to Judaism, but succeeded in grasping the connection between the Bible, the Jewish people and its history, and the land of Israel. Every painting is accompanied by a biblical verse ascribed to each work by the artist. Subjects range from broadly biblical to contemporary.<\/p><p>According to some scholars, Dal\u00ed\u00a0was an anti-Semite, due to his involvement with the dictator Franco in Spain, who collaborated with Hitler, but he perhaps had a change of heart in the 1960s when he saw biblical prophecies coming to life in the rebirth of Israel.<\/p><p>\u201cAliyah\u201d is not his only Jewish-themed work: He produced other paintings, as well as two sculptures, \u201cMenorah\u201d and \u201cWestern Wall,\u201d whose images he licensed to a man named Jean-Paul Delcourt in 1980.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Those familiar
