The Life & Art of Dovid Labkovski
An Artist’s Journey
Dovid Labkovski, a little known Jewish artist, survived the holocaust by being imprisoned in a Soviet Siberian prison camp. His life spanned one of the most tumultuous decades in history. When he died in 1991 he left a legacy of nearly 500 pieces of art that chronicled those years. The film is a unique blend of world events, i.e. pogroms, the American depression, the rise of Hitler and Stalin, the holocaust, Siberian prison camp, all told against the backdrop of Dovid’s art.
An earlier 6 minute film, prepared for the Los Angeles Holocaust Museum can be seen on YouTube.
