THE SANDWICH BOX is circulating between artists around the world.
THE SANDWICH BOX is an ongoing, collaborative artwork.
THE SANDWICH BOX is a gesture and a fellow traveller.
As part of the NEW LIFE BERLIN Contemporary Art Festival, artists anywhere in the world have been encouraged to apply to obtain THE SANDWICH BOX for one week.
THE SANDWICH BOX is consisting of a metal suitcase measuring: 31 x 37,5 x 12,5 cm (height, length, width). This suitcase is packed with a “Lysthus” (“Gazebo” in English) tent measuring 200 x 150 x 150 cm (height, length, width). The tent can be unpacked from the suitcase and has room for a couple of people.
In applying for THE SANDWICH BOX, artists are free to use the box and tent for whatever artwork, situation or other scenario they might find relevant. However, a contextual codex for inspiration can be found at: www.thesandwichboxsite.org
More than 40 international artists have worked within the context of the box project since 2004, but this is the very first time that the project is launched in its current form*.
THE SANDWICH BOX project is formulated and conceived by Danish artist Lars Vilhelmsen in collaboration with Charlotte Mosen Jensen / Den lille Have
*THE SANDWICH BOX project originates from Vilhelmsen’s Travellers Secret Box project begun in May 2004.
