TEDDY KOLLEK (1911-2007), MAYOR OF JERUSALEM (1965-1993) Theodore Kollek is well known around the world as the great builder of modern-day Jerusalem As a follower of Herzl, the father of modern political Zionism, Kollek turned Jerusalem into an international centre of culture, that carries a message of peace and tolerance. As Mayor of Jerusalem, Kollek was known a patron of culture. He set up theatres, museums, community centres, libraries, public sculptures and parks. Perhaps the greatest contribution Kollek made to Jerusalem was the spirit of tolerance he managed to infuse into the demographic tinderbox. During Teddy’s tenure, many artists and writers were drawn to the city and worked there, among them Marc Chagall, Pablo Picasso, Jacques Lipschitz, Alexander Calder and Niki de Saint Phalle, to name but a few. In his memoire, For Jerusalem, published with his son in 1978, Kollek recalled his long relationship with Marc Chagall: ”I first met him in the early 1960s, when he was working on the twelve stained glass windows for the synagogue in the Hadassah Medical Centre. Later he did beautiful tapestries for the Knesset building. Chagall and I got on very well..” (p. 169).
