Changing Stars

 

“THE RADIO WAS ON.
I was carving.
The Berlin Wall had fallen...
Lots of people were waxing lyrical
about ‘the Market’ and ‘Europe’.

First the Ebbe Carlsson affair, then
Changing Stars .
A kind of market picture – a picture of the Market...
Two men exchanging stars.
Maybe one of them was a STASI informer...
Who knows?...”






Catalogue text for “Ladies and Gentlemen...”

The relief was carved for the EU-critical exhibition
"Bara Brysselkål
", Frölunda Kulturhus, Sweden, 1980
