Send us Fan MailMichoel Muchnik (b. 1952, Philadelphia) blends formal training from the Rhode Island School of Design with Chassidic scholarship from the Rabbinical College of America. While celebrated for his early storybook-style art and illustrations, his recent work features intricate mixed-media bas-reliefs using crushed metal and polymer clay. His art is held in global collections, and has been exhibited in many places including the Brooklyn Museum. Major projects include the permanent 22-foot bas relief mural titled "The Treasured Land" at the Jewish Children’s Museum in Brooklyn, and a 40-foot mural at the Tzfas Visitor Center at Mikveh Chana in the holy city of Tzfas, Israel. Additionally, Muchnik designs institutional donor walls and has illustrated numerous children's books.      He takes great pride in his children and grandchildren, some who  are Chabad shluchim and artists in their own right.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------https://wig-guru.com - Use Code 'Brainstorm' For 10% Offhttps://ourvillageny.org-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For more Brainstorm go to...Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2aPCiuzsIoNKYt5jjv7RFT?si=67dfa56d4e764ee0Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/brainstorm-with-sony-perlman/id1596925257Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@brainstormwithsonyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/brainstormwithsony
