Anders Boisen was born in Denmark, but has lived and worked at the Chateau de Fleurie in France for the past 25 years. His art is timeless with universal symbols, inspired by African Art, Art Brut and Minimalism. He was astonished to see that people in the region just burned the old gigantic wine barrels which bore the history and culture of generations of winegrowers. He started to collect the oak slats and made sculptures out of them as bearers of the life and the culture of the wine. Now also vines, steel bands from the wooden casks, stone, and ceramics from Morocco get a new existence as sculptures who make us thing about the impertinence of life. He wishes to give new life to these unique shapes, and to redirect us to more simple, but profound values in an ever changing world. |
