At the Breman: Photographer documented
the beginnings of the State of Israel
Paul Goldman’s career as a press photographer
focused mainly on a newborn and
its growing pains. Goldman photographed
vivid scenes in the life of his adopted homeland
as it became Israel and struggled to
survive. His simply composed, brightly lit
images, shot with a chunky Speed Graphic
news camera during the 1940s and 1950s,
document intimate moments at a time of
sweeping, historic change.
More than 100 of his newly restored
images, many never published, will be
included in “The Forgotten Photographs:
The Work of Paul Goldman from
1943–1961,” which will be on display at
the Breman Museum, October 11-
December 31.
Paul Goldman was a Hungarian-born
photojournalist who fled from Budapest in
1940 with his wife, Dina, to escape spreading
Nazism. Arriving in Palestine during its
tumultuous final years under the British
control that began in 1918, Goldman found
work as a freelance photographer for local
newspapers and international news services.
Thanks to his privileged access—first
as a British Army member, later as a journalist
befriended by Israeli leaders—he
gained a front-row perspective at a pivotal
time for the Middle East.
The resulting collection of 40,000 negatives
embodies a panorama of events, families,
leaders, struggles, and hopes.
Goldman’s best-known image is one taken
in September 1957, showing Israeli Prime
Minister David Ben-Gurion doing a headstand
at the Sharon Hotel beach in
Herzliyah.

headstand
“Paul Goldman seemed to have been
almost everywhere and at the right
moment,” said curator Shlomo Arad, a
renowned former Newsweek photographer.
“He stood with his camera by the cradle of
the state in the making.... His subjects were
refugees and diplomats, leaders, and ordinary
men and women.”
The images in the exhibition are from
the collection of Spencer M. Partrich, a
real-estate developer based in Farmington
Hills, Michigan. Partrich purchased the 4” x
5” negatives from Goldman’s daughter in
late 2001 and had them restored at a
Jerusalem lab.
The images span 18 years and an array
of subjects. Some scenes are ordinary, others
extraordinary; some are poignant, others
disturbing.
Images include peaceful 1945-46
streetscapes and beach scenes in Tel Aviv,
including a roasted-corn vendor at Mugrabi
Plaza and a beggar with a performing monkey.
On other days in 1945, the same camera
pointed at Holocaust survivors from
Buchenwald, Auschwitz, and other Nazi
camps as they landed at the Port of Haifa
and reached resettlement camps in
Palestine.
In July 1946, Goldman raced in his Jeep
to the site of an historic attack by Israeli
underground fighters against British Army
offices at the King David Hotel in
Jerusalem. He arrived in time to photograph
casualties being evacuated from the explosion
site, where 91 people died and hundreds
were wounded.
Historic rarities include a 1949 photo
essay showing the secretive journey of
Yemenite Jews from Aden to camps in
Israel. They were among 47,000 refugees
relocated in an Operation Magic Carpet airlift
by 380 American and British planes.
There are also such familiar faces as
Chaim Weizmann, the nation’s first president,
and emerging figures destined to gain
international fame—Golda Meir, Moshe
Dayan, Menachem Begin, and a young lieutenant
colonel commanding a paratroopers’
brigade in March 1957. That uniformed
officer is Ariel Sharon, who became Israel’s
prime minister.
Goldman worked in anonymity at a
time before photojournalism was respected
as a creative form. News photos generally
appeared uncredited or with a tiny credit
line. “His images made their way into the
national pantheon in almost total anonymity,”
Arad writes. In the museum catalog,
Arad calls the collection “a treasure for historians
and sociologists, students and
researchers.”
