Excellent

Haha I’ll let it slip but if you ever refer to ‘my culture’ in relation to this guy I’ll have to unfriend you 🤣

What is the greater achievement: stopping the Stock Exchange or designing tapestries for the Monarch?

But “his greatest achievement is perhaps his work in designing Queen Margrethe II's tapestries” 😂

On a less macabre note there was also “‘The Female Christ’ (1969) when his wife Lene Adler Petersen walked naked with a cross through the Copenhagen Stock Exchange in order to remind society of Christ's visit to the temple. Trading was suspended for the rest of the day.”

“Another [by the same artist] was his ‘Horse Sacrifice’ (1970) where he slaughtered a horse on a field in the north of Zealand and carved it up into small pieces which he put into hundreds of jam jars.”

That would be legendary - perhaps Nadja will invite him I don’t have his contact info

Yeah I’m pretty excited to read it + have a conversation with the author on the occasion of my NY book launch :-)
