(Signed) Reproductions Direct From Papers by Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson

A collection of works by Oslo-based artist Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson.

This work, which focuses on the mechanism of generation of news and history, is compiled from an archive of newspaper photographs that the artist is currently collecting. The photographs are pulled out of their original context and form a new, unfixed narrative. By referring to the complex relationship between the sender and receiver of language and images, Johansson continues his research into the production and reception of visual culture in this work.
