Not desperate yet, but we are in search of Artist Alexander Rappoport. A University of Arizona campus department would like to reproduce his painting titled "Prayer" on the cover of a departmental publication. Does anyone have a contact in Munich, Germany who can tell us if the artist is still alive or who may own the copyright for his image? Also, does anyone have a name of a contact and contact number for the Vilna Gaon Jewish Museum? Happy New Year to all! :-) Miguel Juarez, Assistant Librarian (Art, Art Education, Art History & Photography) Fine Arts Library Center for Creative Photography Library University of Arizona Library Office: Music 231B P.O.
