The Jewish Theater present Lee Yanor
The Jewish Theatre Presents is an exclusive and uniquely designed artist’s book born from the success of the exhibition Small Songs at The Jewish Theatre in Stockholm, a collaboration between the Theatre Director Pia Forsgren and the artist and filmmaker Lee Yanor in 2010. The Art Director was Anders Wester. It is not an exhibition that has now “been released as a book.” Instead, it has given rise to yet another work of art.
Lee is a poetic work, a visual flow, almost a film of Lee Yanor’s images. The flow is mixed in with poems by Paul Celan as well as texts by Lee Yanor herself, Editor in Chief Madelaine Levy, Curator Varda Steinlauf, and Pia Forsgren, among others.

Lee Yanor is a visual artist, filmmaker, and photographer. Born in 1963 in Haifa. Studied Art and Photography at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem, at the Pratt Institute in New York, and at Paris 8 University, where she received a Master of Fine Arts in 1993. Yanor works creatively interweaving plastic arts, photography, dance, music, sound, and technology. Movement is an element that has a philosophical and physical presence within her. Through her video installations, emulsions, and holograms, she brings out the materiality of the image and imprints countless layers of reflexive and collective memories in time and space.
