TRANSPORTING
THE OEUVRE FROM MEDIA TO MEDIA (1989 - 1995)
Sport Art is born
Starting with the Danish newspaper Politiken, I publish a self-portrait with
my wife accompanied by a text announcing the birth of a concept-group “Sport
Art” and the score of our first soccer competition. Later, I take this out
of context and with the complicity of the critic, Jan Kornum Larsen, decide
to transport it into the newspaper Weekend Avisen.
Then several years later after many attempts, I manage to have it reframed
in the magazine Torpedo, surrounded by another text (Karen Westman).
The oeuvre travels from one mass media to another and becomes framed
by articles which appear like archeological strata, fossilizing its past like
the circles of a cut tree.
