Artist

Hannibal Andersen

Hannibal Andersen creates images, objects, interventions and performances that address the role of the economy in society. He gives intangible economic conditions physical form, revealing their relationship to art and existence. His works pose amusing and embarrassing issues about capital’s authority, limitlessness, and invisible power.

Hannibal Andersen has exhibited work at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen; P.E.T Projects, Athens; and The National Museum of 21st Century Arts, Rome, among others.
