The Mel Wacks Judaica Art Medal Award 2023
The winner of the 2023 Mel Wacks Judaica Art Medal Award for the best medal shown at FIDEM featuring a Judaic or biblical theme was Hanna Jelonek for her homage to “The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising” by sculptor Nathan Rapoport, installed in Warsaw and Yad Vashem, Jerusalem.
Only one year after winning the Saltus Award, Hanna Jelonek is honored with the 2023 Mel Wacks Judaica Art Medal Award.
The medal commemorates the 80th anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, led by the youthful Mordecai Anielewicz, who is portrayed by Jelonek and Rapoport as a more mature man.
The uprising was the largest single revolt by Jews during World War II; a total of 13,000 Jews were killed. According to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, the uprising was “one of the most significant occurrences in the history of the Jewish people.”
