Troels Wörsel (Nov. 10, 1950 - 2018) was a Danish conceptual artist who lived abroad since 1979 - first in Germany, then in Italy. Wörsel always explored the balance between perception and representation in art - perhaps inspired by Wittgenstein and other philosophers he admired. He often created serial artworks, such as this one which is one of many ‘half horses’ he created.His work is found at all large Danish museums and quite a few select foreign ones, including MoMA, Centre Pompidou in Paris ,Moderna Museet Stockholm, Kiasma in Helsinki, and Nasjonalmuseet Oslo.Above: Untitled, 2009 - acrylic on canvas (SMK) -- source link
