Sten Hanson – Public Sound #6 [10"/Printed Matter]

"My Last Works is a homage to the work and life of Sten Hanson (1936-2013). It comes with 4 not yet published sound pieces on white 10" and CD + a booklet with essays on his work by GJ de Rook and Magnus Haglund. Sten Hanson, the Swedish artist, who, working as a sound-poet, created pioneering work in the visual arts as well as performance art, is no more. Strong, defiant, brutal and delicate, with a talent for aesthetic planning, and with a deep-seated political commitment has – active and engaged as he was – inspired a whole new generation of artists with his performances, concrete poetry and electronic and electro-acoustic music.
