THE WORLD OF ARTIST (Homage to STORM P.)

Storm P. Museum, Copenhagen, 1997

 

Eduard Bersudsky:

"In 1996, in Copenhagen our kinemats performed at the exhibition ' The Playing Man'. There we met Jens Bing - an enthusiastic director of Storm P. Museum.

The outstanding Danish artist and caricaturist Storm P. is remembered for his drawings of crazy machines and foxy little men, tramps and clowns - but all his life he was aware about Death, sitting on his shoulder.

Jens asked me to make a sculpture for the museum.

It was an easy work - because I fell in love at first sight with Storm P. and with his tramps - amusing homeless old philosophers.

 In the next world I would like to meet them and drink the health of a genius who created them."

 

 

         

 

 

 

HOMAGE TO LEONARDO,

The Big Idea, Centre for Inventors and Inventions,Irvine, Scotland, 1999 (The Big Idea was closed in Sept 2003)

 

"...It is at the moment that they are working the least, that the higher minds achieve the most; they are then mentally in search of unprecedented and find a perfect form form for ideas, which they afterwards express by tracing with their hands what they have conceived in their minds."

Leonardo da Vinci
