António Ole

Born in Luanda in 1951, painter, photographer and filmmaker António Ole is an internationally acclaimed artist. His work is a powerful reflection of Angola’s recent turbulent history focusing on themes of colonization, civil war, social conflict and perhaps most importantly, human capacity for resistance and survival. Ole studied African American culture and cinema at the University of California, Los Angeles, and film at the Center for Advanced Film and Television Studies, American Film Institute, Los Angeles. A versatile artist, he is distinguished for his photography, documentary films, and large-scale multimedia installations, through which he explores the textures of life in marginal urban sites.
