Caspar Berger
Should I stay or Should I go / Self-portrait 46
The artist
Caspar is a Dutch artist who mostly works with sculpture. This video work is a bit of an odd duck in his oeuvre.
Never give up
Sometims Caspar's wife helps him out when he makes his work. For this specific work the two of them went out to an apple orchard. They tried to film Caspar as he picked an apple from a tree. They could not find the perfect tree or the right angle and eventually gave up. On their drive home after a long day of trying they saw this tree through their car window. They decided to stop and take one last shot. Caspar’s wife set up the camera and this work was filmed.
