Anja Franke
The book offers a thorough retrospective view of Anja Franke's work during the last 15 years. Mikkel Bogh, director of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, contributes with an essay on the experience of mental and physical spaces in Franke's installations and her concern with borders, limitations, divisions and relations. Sanne Kofod Olsen, curator, writer and director of the Funen Academy of Fine Arts in Odense, looks into recurrent aspects or principles in Franke's practice such as man, woman, apple, house and Franke's play with gender roles. The artist introduces each work with a description and personal comments.
