“After the Holocaust Shamri's poetry, filled with love for nature, displays a renewed identification with the hasidic world of his Polish childhood. From 1966 he headed the Tel Aviv publishing house Yisroel–Bukh and among others he edited and published there Vortslen ("Roots," 1966), an anthology of prose and verse by Israeli Yiddish writers.” (Jewish Virtual Library).
”Benn (Bencjon Rabinowicz) was a painter associated with the School of Paris. His early work was mostly figurative; much of his later work is inspired by the Bible, particularly the Book of Psalms.” (Wikipedia).
