A contribution to shared memories
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. The focus is on 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 in combination with new camera-based works, making the project a profoundly subjective reflection on the most significant upheavals of the twentieth century, on war and displacement, love and loss, trauma and grief.
