A NEW SCULPTURE FOR GOTHENBURG

On thursday the 3rd of November the press witnessed the mounting of Olav Christopher Jenssen’s sculpture Lingaphone far out on the tip of one of the central piers of Gothenburg.

Lingaphone is a new sculpture by the Jenssen, developed for the Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art. The sculpture’s position on the tip of a centrally located pier, makes it as visible from the mainland as from Hisingen. It is over 19 feet tall and 16 feet wide, but has a thickness of only five inches.
