CHRESTEN FORSOM

Chresten Forsom (b. 1980) is a Danish writer. He published his first book in 2009, a book of poetry carrying no title and no cover. The text featured on the first page was therefore the actual text of the book. No interior markings, the font was Times New Roman.

In 2010-11 Chresten was living in New York, where he completed a site-specific project, consisting of text copied down from the facades of 120 street intersections on Manhattan. The project was published as a series of unique works titled after their respective intersections. It was finalized on a manual typewriter
