„The sorcerer destroys the deception of the Creator, by creating another deception instead. But at the same time, it is important that he immediately eliminates all the deceptions he himself creates“<\/b><\/p>\n
The Icelandic visual artist, \u00d3mar Stef\u00e1nsson, is known by many for his unconventional ways of life and art. At the age of sixteen, he gave an interview to the Icelandic paper, V\u00edsir, as a young artist and a magician. The same year he got admitted to the Reykjav\u00edk School of Fine Arts at an exceptionally young age, where he graduated from the then new Experimental Arts Department in 1981. His art career now spans in huge excess across painting, sculpture, writing and published books as well as notorious performance work staged with the Art Brut bands Bruni BB and Inferno 5<\/span><\/p>\n Throughout his art career of almost 50 years,\u00a0 \u00d3mar has been consistent with the concept of his work, as seen in the above quote from the 1976 interview with V\u00edsir. The controversial satire of human history, science and religion is a never ending theme and nothing is ever as it seems.<\/span><\/p>\n
