New York-based artist Babak Radboy teams up with Muppet creators the Jim Henson Company for a project about Norwegian multimedia artist Bjarne Melgaard. The result is a playful film that questions the nature of artistic appropriation.
Radboy says of the project: “The muppet is a marketing object, one in an abyss of likenesses that compose the Melgaard brand—a project including several streetwear collections, videos, magazines, ad campaigns, installations and more. A certain spirit holds the project together and there is a noticeable absence of Bjarne’s hand—at times, even of his most basic input.” Read more on NOWNESS - http://bit.ly/2nouPza
