Kirsten Justesen<\/a> lives and works in Copenhagen. Educated at  the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts 1975.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Her activities comprise a wide range of genres, from body art and performance art to sculptures and installation. Justesen was part of the avant-garde scene of the 1960s, where she became a pioneering figure within the three-dimensional modes of art that incorporate the artist’s own body as artistic material. These experiments led her into investigating a feminist art which challenged traditional value systems during the 1970s. Her later works constitute broader investigations of relationships between body, space, and language.<\/span><\/div>\n
