Alone But Not Lonely

Michael Rogatchi has created his Alone But Not Lonely series being inspired by the project on artistic visualisation of Yiddish poetry of different ages and epochs, as well as the selected world poetry. The idea was introduced to him by his dear friend Maestro Evgeny Kissin, who is also known as author and translator of Yiddish poetry, and as a dedicated admirer of poetry.

The vision, feelings and images created by two close friends, one great musician and other artist, have been converging on the matters and aspects which are dear and close to the hearts of them both and their families in generations.

The series, echoing Maestro Kissin’s poetry, the poetry of the great Yiddish poets, many of them with tragic destinies, and selected by Evgeny Kissin the pearls of world poetry are projecting humanity, living memory, love, and visually speaks about beauty, reflections and memories of it all in universal meaning.
