Artist Ragnar Kjartansson: "I'm not an authentic human being" | Louisiana Channel

"Me, coming from a theatre family, I didn't feel this authenticity. I still don't feel authentic. And I guess that's authentic about me." Icelandic visual artist, Ragnar Kjartansson's world of art is filled with clichés. And he's not afraid to use them. From a heartbroken crooner in a white suit to a half a year performance as a macho painter, Kjartansson gives a tour into his oeuvre as well as his studio space.
