Most others have been broken up and sold over the years.<\/p>\n<p>Dieringer says that while most art historians and critics focus on the artist\u2019s work between 1929 and 1939, during the Paris Surrealist movement, his graphic commissions from the \u201960s and \u201970s merit serious consideration. She notes that Dal\u00ed, who was born in 1904 in the Catalonian region of Spain, \u201cwasn\u2019t part of the founding of Israel cause. In fact, he was very apolitical.\u201d But, as the project stands, \u201che did a fantastic job.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Aliyah: The Rebirth of Israel<\/em> is on display in the Rubin-Frankel Gallery, Florence &amp; Chafetz Hillel House, 213 Bay State Rd., through July 31.
