Czernowitzers...
Most of you know Arnold Daghani and his oeuvre. Some of you, as for instance Arthur, even met Arnold Daghani during the long period of suffering in Transnistria (see below). The Arnold Daghani Collection at the University of Sussex with its around 6,000 works is the most substantial part of the University Library and - of course - Arnold Daghani is represented in "our" Czernowitz Art Gallery (see below).
But who is Miha Ahronovitz?
I came across Miha's story "Arnold Daghani. Who is he?", or - more precisely - Miha discovered the "Czernowitz Art Gallery" a few days ago. Miha met Arnold Daghani in Bucharest around 1955, who was at that time Miha's English tutor, and, as we learn from Miha's article, "the most expensive English tutor in Bucharest under the Stalin-style communist regime". What a superb story! I feel certain you'll like it, as much as I do. So please start reading at our Ehpes.com Blog
http://ehpes.com/blog1/2012/06/04/arnold-daghani-who-is-he-by-miha-ahronovitz/
and from there, continue reading at Miha Ahronovitz's Blog
http://mirceavorona.blogspot.de/
and you'll discover much more outstanding postings, as for instance "The American Refrigerator", an exemplary burlesque from post WW2-Romania. Miha, even if you are not related (yet) to Czernowitz and Bukovina, I think our Czernowitz-L Discussion Group (http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/) is the right place for you to be, at least since publishing your article on Arnold Daghani; I'm encouraging you to join us and thank you for your contribution!
