The Bird Project 2006 – 2017

Beskrivning

Over a period of twelve years, Stockholm-based artist Erik Berglin wheat-pasted 4,982 hand-cut images of birds in natural scale in twelve cities around the world.

For the duration of this project, Berglin sourced ornithology books in antiquarian bookshops and libraries. Their photographs were scanned, edited, and reprinted. Each year, Berglin traveled to a new city for his project: Gothenburg, Berlin, Tel Aviv, Casablanca, New York, Reykjavik, Madrid, Malmö, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, London, and Stockholm.
