Moshe Nachshoni - Chabad.org
Athens, Greece, proved the better of kosher supervisor Rabbi Moshe Nachshoni until a Chabad-Lubavitch emissary came to his aid.
ATHENS, Greece — I arrived in Athens, Greece, two weeks ago on my way from Israel to the island of Crete, a popular tourist destination. The trip involved reviewing the possibility of making a local hotel kosher for the upcoming holiday of Passover. The entire journey was supposed to last no longer than 12 hours, but alas, G-d has a way of seeing things differently.

Anthony Behar was interested in stepping away from portraying the Lubavitch in a stereotypical way: instead of using the city landscape as a backdrop to set them apart from the general public, he decided to turn his focus inward, literally and figuratively. Wanting to create a series of images that were more lyrical than critical, he photographed them within the confines of the sacred grounds of Grand Rebbe Menachem Shnearson¹s grave and within the sanctum of their headquarters, the earliest founded Chabad Synagogue in Brooklyn, New York. This is the beauty of their culture as seen by a New York documentary photographer.
