About the Item
The Hanukkah Lamp by Luigi Del Monte, created in 1999, is a striking reinterpretation of the traditional Hanukkah menorah. Constructed from brushed aluminum, the lamp embraces minimalist modernist design while honoring the deep-rooted traditions of Jewish ceremonial art. Its semi-circular base, sleek and geometric, features precisely drilled holes to hold the nine candles required for Hanukkah—eight representing the festival nights and one elevated for the shamash, or helper candle. Engraved contour lines ripple across the surface, adding subtle texture and evoking the flickering light of the candles when illuminated. The underside bears the artist’s inscription, “© 1999, Luigi Del Monte,” affirming its authenticity and marking it as a significant example of modern Judaica.
Luigi Del Monte, an Italian-Jewish artist and engineer, is renowned for merging engineering precision with artistic vision in his contemporary designs. After a career in structural engineering, Del Monte turned to art and design in the late 1990s, focusing on reimagining Judaica objects with a modern sensibility. His work is characterized by its innovative use of materials, particularly anodized aluminum, and its ability to fuse tradition with modernity. Pieces like the Hannukah Lamp demonstrate his commitment to preserving cultural heritage while exploring contemporary aesthetics. Del Monte’s work has been exhibited internationally, including at institutions like the Israel Museum in Jerusalem and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, cementing his reputation as a pioneer in modern Judaica design.
The Hannukah Lamp embodies this duality, serving as both a functional ceremonial object and a timeless work of art. It is a centerpiece that reflects Del Monte’s ability to honor Jewish tradition while appealing to modern artistic tastes, making it a treasured addition to any collection.
