featured design: [not-Chinese, Danish] paper art
Posted on by Lyn Jeffery
Paper Scenes: Appreciating Engraved Paper Creations was posted May 31 07 at the design show forum at Yesky.com, a popular Chinese IT portal. The photos came from a Netease BBS, apparently, but a quick Baidu search didn’t turn up anything more, and there’s no artist attribution. I don’t even know if it’s Chinese, frankly, but most likely Asian at least. More photos at the site–check out the paper waterfall cut from the middle of a page…Update: not Chinese at all! These extraordinary pieces are by Danish artist Peter Callesen, who we now know thanks to Liz. I don’t think the Yesky design editor knew where they were from, which is why they were left unattributed.
You are doing some interesting work. What a good luck!
Very nice art indeed! I first came across these breathtaking cut outs here:

Always a pleasure to read your blog.
Thanks,

Liz, so glad you were able to identify the artist. Wonderful stuff.
The artist behind these paper sculptures isn’t Asian unfortunately, but a Dane from Copenhagen : Peter Callesen : http://www.petercallesen.com

I’ve just been letting everything wash over me. I just don’t have much to say right now, but what can I say? I can’t be bothered with anything these days. Such is life. I haven’t been up to much lately.
Lovely i just shocked, you are really just a creative.
For art we have to describe what this quote means and we need some help. any ideas?
Kiewit had no interest in running the World-Herald, Gottschalk says,
“but he didn’t want his hometown paper owned by someone else.” The
next year, he bought out the heirs of the founding Hitchcock family,
then set about creating an ownership structure Gottschalk calls “as
bulletproof as any in the industry.”
The blog has lots of interesting information, I entertained a lot, thanks for sharing!
