“Architectonic Menorah”, Hanukah lamp, Richard Meier (American, b. 1935), United States, 1985, tin-coated copper
Richard Meier designed each candleholder of the Hanukah lamp to represent an architectural style from various moments of persecution in Jewish history. The holder for the first night depicts an Egyptian obelisk; the last one evokes watchtowers from German concentration camps. Meier writes that the candleholders are "reminders of the common past and struggles that Jewish people have suffered and their resilience and strength" which the Hanukah story embodies.
