The project Anton Laier – An Art Archive brings to life the near forgotten work of danish artist Anton Laier through a dynamic visual
and artistic lens. Once a controversial and pioneering figuer in the
danish art world Laier left behind a collection of 230 sculptures now
at risk of being lost as they sit abandoned in an inaccessible basement.
This project offers a new way to engage with Laier’s artistic legacy, combining a visual registry with an innovative framework for
presentation. The concept is built around three key elements:
an artistic archive, a magazine, and an exhibition poster.
The magazine acts as a "museum on paper, allowing the works to
be showcased without needing to be physically relocated.
By reimagining the traditional archive, the project place Laier's art at
the forefront of its design. The project intens to created an interactive system that lets users organize the content in their own way enabling
them to develop personal interpretation of the works—reflecting
Laier’s own chaotic and open approach to art.
