Object analysis with Stephanie von Spreter at Guttorm Guttormsgaard's Archive. Sep 2018

This is one of six object analyses made with a group of young artists taking part in the workshop 'The Collective Subject of History' at Guttorm Guttormgaard's Archive in Blaker, Norway (June & September 2018). I (Jakob Jakobsen) invited six of the workshop participants to choose one or more objects from the Archive that we could use as a point of departure for a radio conversation. All conversations last around 30 min. Writer and curator Stephanie von Spreter selected a 1686 book called 'The World of Things Obvious to the Senses Drawn in Pictures' - together with a single sheet from 'Poésie de mots inconnus', a book consisting loose pages with modern poetry by several authors and artists published in Paris in 1949.
