OLAV WESTPHALEN
Is a German-American artist based in Stockholm whose conceptual works frequently take the form of games, entertainment, cartoons. His work often exposes the cultural blind spots of his own tribe (i.e. the comfortably left-leaning contemporary art world). He plays both sides of the HI-LO divide, producing mass-media comedy and cartoons while showing in museums and galleries such as The Whitney Museum, ICA London, The Swiss Institute NY, Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Brandenburgischer Kunstverein and others. His work is collected by the Dallas Museum, Centre Pompidou, Moderna Museet, MoMA, New York etc. He is also a member of Rattelschneck, a two-person Cartoon collective.
The event is curated by Cameron MacLeod and Roger von Reybekiel.
