Forget Beyoncé. Now it’s a cool art exhibit

- BY ZOE WINOGRAD

SOME BARMITZVAH BOYS ask for Beyoncé. But JFS pupil Ethan Djanogly is marking his barmitzvah next month with an art show — at the Royal Institute of British Architects.

Ethan is a passionate photograph­er and his parents have helped him stage his first exhibition, with 25 of his pictures going on show at RIBA in central London. His barmitzvah reception will be held at RIBA, too.

My 13th Perspectiv­e shows pictures from Israel, America, France and the UK. Ethan began taking photograph­s four years ago when his father gave him a camera for his birthday. “It is his passion, it is all he does when he is not at school,” l ” said id hi his mother, Cathya.

Ethan said: “It will be nerve-wracking to say my parsha, but I’m really excited about the exhibition. I like to reveal the hidd hidden beauty b of f ordinary di places l and d I like [the fact] that with photograph­y you can’t prepare what that will be.”

The family plans to donate the pictures to a charity after the exhibition.
