About The Artist
Kåre Frang is a Danish artist who primarily works with sculpture. In his choice of materials and form, Frang is preoccupied with the stories, structures, and mechanisms that are attched to each of the things.
Frang has created a rocking chair sculpture placed in the small pavillion by the entrance to the Smøgen area of Tivoli, cast from biscuits, which he has painted and assembled with hot-melt glue, epoxy, and a butter-like silicone. The result is a both fragile and clumsy object with no practical use whatsoever, with a materiality and shape that recalls personal experiences and memories.
Kåre Frang (b. 1992) holds a MFA from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. He has been part of multiple Danish exhibitions, and is the recipient of the Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen Talent prize, 15. Juni Fonden Honorary Award, and Silkeborg Kunstnerlegat.
