Written by Sivert Lindblom for the exhibition catalogue for Live Show, Moderna Museet, Stockholm, 4 May – 3 June 1974.

Live Show is an experiment on the border between sculpture, performance and architecture. We — Björn Lövin, Ulrik Samuelson and I — work without predetermined outcome. The exhibition space is our workplace; the audience are witnesses.

It is about making the working process visible. Not art as a finished object but art as event, as time, as change. We work with materials such as wood, rope, fabric, metal — simple things transformed through action and intention. The result is always unforeseen and never definitive.
