With the bulletin board pictures, Tal R's stated ambition is to take on the cornflakes packets. The bulletin boards offer a visual universe that you can fall in love with while slowly waking up. Or shut down. In Tal R's own words, they are stoner posters. And there should be plenty to look at: from advertisements to pornography, art history and illustrations from a children's book.

The boards exist only as reproductions, as posters. The originals - the ones where the drawing pins really stuck out from the rough hessian - have been broken back into the visual atoms they were before they were briefly assembled into the various wholes.

The bulletin boards are like an index of our visual world. Here, all images appear on equal terms, whether they are modern art, private snap-shots or colored fantasies. In this way, the bulletin boards are related to Tal R's gigantic series of paintings, where similar clippings are layered. These paintings have helped to cement Tal R's position on the international art scene.

The Danish artist, Tal R (b. 1967), has been one of the most significant Danish artists of his generation since the 1990s and is today richly represented in Louisiana's collection.

Tal R made his debut at Louisiana in 1997 and almost had a popular breakthrough with the museum's retrospective exhibition, The Sum, in 2007. In 2017, Louisiana opened the first comprehensive presentation of the artist's works created over the past 20 years.
