Infos

Call Me Lola is a moving photo essay by the acclaimed Israeli-American lens-based artist and documentarian Loli Kantor. For over twenty years, she combed through the family archives of her Polish-born father, a doctor and political activist. At the center of her work is her mother, Lola, who died in childbirth: a woman who manifests herself principally through images and stories rather than direct memories. The family documents and photographs that retrace the artist's personal history are shown alongside new camera-based works, resulting in a deeply subjective reflection on the most significant upheavals of the twentieth century: war and displacement, love and loss, trauma and grief. LOLI KANTOR (*1952) is an Israeli-American photographer whose work centers on personal and cultural memory. She lives and works in Fort Worth, Texas.
