Cleaning Art performance
Södertälje Art Hall, Sweden 1995



The performance used the enormous roof windows of the Södertälje Art Hall, which were very dirty. Dressed in the Saint Scrubbingbrush cleaning knight outfit, Andersson climbed outside on the roof and scrubbed the windows clean so more light could get in. At the same time he symbolically “cleaned the art”, which was on display in the Art hall. The audience, which was inside the Art Hall could see how the shape of Saint Scrubbingbrush gradually got sharper and cleaner!
