Some of the projects and printed matters which I have been decisively involved in.


Visions

The aim was to establish an international and in particular a European platform for the Indian peoples. Copenhagen, as the Cultural Capital of Europe '96 was able to provide that space.

Next Stop
Soviet 		Project folder

Illustrator: Oluf Thomasson 		Next Stop Soviet was a gigantic project in the fall of 1989, when more than 2.500 youngsters from Scandinavia travelled to the Soviet Union in order to establish personal partnerships and help tearing down the Iron Curtain. Besides more than 100 single projects, we got away with a satellite transmitted rock concert in Moscow, a cultural event train trough several republics and a 3 days' festival on 13 stages in Gorky Park. A year later the Soviet Union was history. Rock concert at

CD with
Bosnian refugees		 Flyer

Vingeskudt (broken winged) is a CD, recorded in 1994 by Bosnian refugees in Denmark.
In times of chaos, tragedy and displacement, culture is often the only anchor in a person's life.
Culture can help people survive apparently hopeless situations and maybe mobilize focused energy. Culture gives and preserves identity. This is of vital relevance, considering that our guests from abroad, after years of waiting must get used to the thought of repatriating and rebuilding their torn apart country.

Concept for
department store in
Hamburg

Projektmappe

Graphics: Hardy Brackmann

C & C was a 5 stories department store in Copenhagen, filled with exotic merchandise. This success was to be exported to Hamburg/Germany. A colleague and I were sent to my hometown to develop a concept and find an untraditional building. Vi found a former ammunition factory that had it's top bombed off during World War 2. The project folder was a piece of lobbyism towards local authorities.

Big
Mountain
Festival

Grey Hall

Photo: Ludwig Löwenzahn		 Quote from a campaign newspaper of March 10th 1986:
Sneaking genocide.
11.000 Indians are relocated by force.
The biggest help will be international media attention.
The US Government is exploiting the Indian nations by all means. At Big Mountain, the holy land of the Navahos, the underground holds the largest resources of coal, uranium and platinum in Northern America. Unfortunately, 11.000 Navahos are in the way for the extraction…

Energy
workshop
Christiania

Plakat

Graphics: Svend Kristensen

 In the fall 1977, I was ask to renovate one of Christianias bigger industrial premises of 600 sqm. The space was then filled up with car wrecks and these were stashed with stolen goods and hashish.
In spite of my bold naivety, I managed to clear the premises without getting in trouble with the owners of the hot merchandise. We needed money to mend several hundreds of broken window glasses. With the help of good friends we held a big charity concert where I debuted as an event maker. Today, the so-called Energy Workshop is specialising in all kinds of metal works.
