    LOTTA BLOKKER - SCULPTURES

    Lotta Blokker has the gift of making her bronzes appear almost to breathe.
    She proved it in 2014 in her solo show The Hour of the Wolf at Museum de Fundatie. Keenly observed images of people in the indeterminate zone between waking and sleeping. For me, the absolute highlight was an image of an old lady with Alzheimer’s, whose half-focused gaze went right through me. Visitors still buttonhole me about it and each of them recalls their own favourite.
    So what do you do if you can make time stand still, or maybe even turn back the clock, to avert impending disaster?
    In recent years, Lotta Blokker has devoted herself to producing images, sculptures, that are a lesson in the communication of injustice and grief. She has sought to uncover the secret of the iconic image capable of instantly changing our perception of war, disaster and injustice.
    She works in an intense and personal way, with an unremitting desire to heal, restore or negate all that is intolerable in our world.
    Lotta Blokker – SCULPTURES is an exhibition about the Holocaust, Vietnam, famine, 9/11, and refugees. It is concerned with people, victims and powerlessness, but also with the healing power of art.
