1948 Establishment of The State of ISRAEL
1918-1948 BRITISH Rule: The British Mandate of Palestine and the Mandate for Palestine, was a legal commission for the administration of Palestine, by the Council of the League of Nations on 24 July 1922 and which came into effect on 26 September 1923. The document was based on the principles contained in Article 22 of the draft Covenant of the League of Nations and the San Remo Resolution of 25 April 1920 by the principal Allied and associated powers after the First World War. The mandate formalized British rule in the southern part of Ottoman Syria from 1923 to 1948. With the League of Nations’ consent on 16 September 1922, the UK divided the Mandate territory into two administrative areas, Palestine, under direct British rule, and autonomous Transjordan, under the rule of the Hashemite family from the Kingdom of Hejaz in present-day Saudi Arabia. Following the 1922 Transjordan memorandum, the area east of the Jordan river became exempt from the Mandate provisions concerning the Jewish National Home.
Organizations around the world flaunt Israel’s Nobel laureates, its sustainable technological breakthroughs, and the abundance of its innovative start-up companies. Yet, when asked what connects you to Israel the answer often shifts to a more personal realm of subjective experience that evokes in people a far more meaningful and lasting impression. Wishing to give voice to these expressions, the House of Israel has published a call for artworks that represent that special connection to the land of Israel or/and to its people.
We were overwhelmed by the diverse
response of Christians, Muslims and Jews from around the world, and thank all artists for sharing their personal perspectives in our FUSED online exhibition. If you wish to be Fused, contact here.
