Ahron D. Weiner creates photography, advertising decollage, newspaper collage and found object sculpture. Having lived for several years in Prague, he traveled Eastern Europe extensively, documenting both the remnants of a disappearing Jewish heritage, and a modern-day pilgrimage of Jews returning to rural Ukraine. Ahron has used photography as medium to manifest the hallucinogenic effects of Absinthe; and as a means of exploring the artistic value of advertising once its commercial purposes have been exhausted. Ahron’s work has been featured in museums, galleries, books and magazines in the US and Europe. His first solo museum show–for his documentary project titled “Next Year in Uman: A Journey to the Ukraine”–recently completed a three-month run at the Philadelphia Museum of Jewish Art. Ahron is an itinerant traveler, passionate chef, obsessed angler, lapsed falconer, and dedicated husband and father to his wife Pamela and three sons–Moshe (13), Amiel (10), and Max (3).
