Plenge Jakobsen insists on art as a special field where exclusive forms of knowledge production and insight may occur. Accordingly, his works strive to define premises and categories that have not already been formulated and seetled by society- in economics, institutions or the art market. One of art´s most important privileges, as he sees it, is the ability to express complexity, doubt and oppositions in a reality where entertainment and ethics thrive on uniformity and simplification.
