An art work has appeared on the central square of Rådhuspladsen in Copenhagen; a figure made of colourful yarn connected to a bell and a peace sign. It's another art work by the street art group Streetheart, made as part of their Christmas Calendar happening with one new surprise each day of December until Christmas Eve. This one is from December 4th and is made by Tejn.
Yes - I saw that one the other day when I biked past. It did make an impression so it's succesful as a piece of street art. Well done with a placement with many other coloured, commercial messages on Copenhagen Townhall Square
ReplyDeleteAt a friends wedding on 12.12.12, the interactive "peace of street art" came in great handy in the after celebration, with people pulling the chain and ringing the peace bell. Thought I heard about Tejn before, so I youtubed him and found this:

I really like these welded streetart-works from Tejn and it is, as you say Christian, a great alternative to the many comercials surrounding the Copenhagen town square. Hope to find some of the other street sculptures out there, if they´re still around.
