  • Lola Mora (17 November 1866 – 7 June 1936) was a sculptor, born in a farm in the province of Salta, Argentina, though generally considered native to Trancas, province of Tucumán, where she was recorded and baptized. She is known today as a rebel and a pioneer of women in her artistic field. Her real name was Dolores Mora Vega. Lola Mora was the daughter of Romualdo Alejandro Mora, a prosperous landowner of Tucumán. She was also a goddaughter of Nicolás Avellaneda and a protegé of Julio Argentino Roca. At 20 years of age she began painting portraits, but soon turned to sculpting marble and granite. She studied art in her home province and then, with a scholarship, in Rome, Italy, where she created her greatest works, some of them by request of the Argentine government. In 1900 she was charged with creating two bass-reliefs for the Historical House of Tucumán (seat of Argentina's Declaration of Independence of 1816). Her style and exposure were controversial and rebellious. In 1903 her Font of the Nereids, created for the city of Buenos Aires, met bureaucratic problems at the city's Deliberative Council, which had the sculpture moved from place to place. Near the end of her life, she did some extravagant business, and then retired with only a pension to support herself. After her death in Buenos Aires, in poverty and obscurity, friends of hers burned her letters, mementos and personal diaries. Although it is not commonly known, Lola Mora obtained various patents. One included a system to project films without a screen (using a column of vapor), as well as systems for mining.

  • Lola Mora ou Dolores Mora de La Vega (née à Trancas, province de Tucumán le 17 novembre 1866 - décédée à Buenos Aires le 7 juin 1936) est une artiste argentine, spécialisée dans la sculpture. Son père Romualdo Alejandro Mora était un riche propriétaire de la province de Tucumán, de lignage créole et sa mère Regina de la Vega, une aristocrate bolivienne. Lola Mora était la nièce du président Nicolás Avellaneda ainsi que la protégée du président Julio Argentino Roca. Elle vécut à une époque de prospérité économique assez généralisée en Argentine. C'est ainsi que dès l'âge de vingt ans elle put étudier les beaux-arts d'abord dans sa province et ensuite à Rome en Italie, où elle eut comme maître principal l'exceptionnel Giulio Monteverde. Son séjour italien prolongé la rendit grande admiratrice du modernisme sculptural et surtout imbue des exemples de la Renaissance et du Baroque, spécialement des œuvres de Michel Ange et du Bernin.
