 Jerusalem: Architecture in the late Ottoman Period
Ticho House, with its library, garden and cafe-restaurant, has also become a venue for concerts by new immigrants and for story-telling events.
The house was bought in 1951 by Swedish Protestants, who established in it the Swedish Theological Seminary for religious instruction and for studies of the Land of Israel.
One such house was built from 1865-1876 by Rabah al-Husseini at 26 Nablus Road, in the Sheikh Jerah Quarter; he lived there with his four wives and his servants until his death in the 1890s.

 PASSIA - Jerusalem
I have worked for the “Ticho House”, a project in the center of Jerusalem in which a former neglected private eye-hospital building was converted into a cultural center, museum and restaurant..
The new housing in it was built in accordance with the general alignment of the original Jewish Quarter, but in a completely different style of architecture - which is also different from that in the Moslem, Christian and Armenian quarters.
The houses are in very bad condition, and considering both the low density of these areas and the high real estate prices in Jerusalem, the Ministry of Housing prefers to build new housing projects in their place.

Ticho studied ophthalmology in Vienna before being sent to Jerusalem in 1912 by a German Zionist organization to open an eye clinic.
His cousin Anna came too and they married the same year, buying the house in 1924 and running a clinic from it, for rich and poor alike, until Abraham's death in 1960.
The house contains many of Anna's paintings - mostly quite abstract watercolours of Jerusalem scenery - some of Abraham's correspondence, and his collection of lamps for the Jewish festival of lights, Hanukkah.

In fact this tradition is a a continuation of European 19th century Orientalism, which started with the French artist, Delacroix, through Roberts up to Lady Carolyne Emily Grey-Hill, known as the ´Painter from mount Scopus´, whose paintings, strongly influenced by the British painter, Turner, are actually shown at the Ticho House, in Jerusalem.
Bokobza takes this LOAD of tradition and introduces it back into the present Middle-East, part of his childhooold world, as a young Parisian kid of Tunisian origins, who grows up in Israel, which is neither a Western World or an Eastern World.

The dimension of synthesis is achieved for instance in Jazz War, where a generalization of concrete interpersonal relationships occurs through employing the principle of mise-en-scene.
The title of Karel Vachek’s film Bohemia Docta, or the Labyrinth of the World and the House of Happiness of the Heart (A Divine Comedy) already refers to the point of departure of its original synthesis.
As in his other films, Vachek creates an original generalizing synthesis, and the universalist model of social structure employed comes to being only in the film itself.
