I motsetning til flere av verkene i skulptur\u00adparken, st\u00e5r dette verket i et milj\u00f8 preget av parkerte biler og \u00adaktivitet rundt kunsthallen. Den fire meter h\u00f8ye skulpturen er utf\u00f8rt i h\u00e5ndmalt aluminium (30 mm), og best\u00e5r av to sammenstilte silhuettformer. Avhengig av hvor betrakteren st\u00e5r, kan figuren fremst\u00e5 b\u00e5de som en todimensjonal silhuett og som en tredimensjonal skulptur. Den fremoverlente kroppsholdningen og de markerte konturene gir samtidig figuren et tydelig inntrykk av bevegelse.<\/p>\n<p>Navnet <em>Mr. Walker<\/em> er hentet fra tegne\u00adseriefiguren Fantomet, som bruker \u00addette navnet n\u00e5r han opptrer uten \u00admaske og drakt. I H\u00e5fstr\u00f6ms versjon fremst\u00e5r figuren med hatt, frakk og solbriller. Gjennom flere ti\u00e5r har <em>Mr. Walker<\/em> utviklet seg til et gjennom\u00adg\u00e5ende motiv i kunstnerskapet ,og opptrer i maleri, grafikk, skulptur og \u00adinstallasjon. Figuren knytter sammen referanser til barndomsminner, popul\u00e6r\u00adkultur, litteratur og kunsthistorie.<\/p>\n<p>Skulpturen inng\u00e5r i en st\u00f8rre gruppe arbeider hvor <em>Mr. Walker<\/em> opptrer i det offentlige rom. For eksempel st\u00e5r en syv meter h\u00f8y versjon av figuren i J\u00e4rnv\u00e4gsparken ved Stockholm sentral\u00adstasjon. Motivet finnes ogs\u00e5 i en rekke andre arbeider av H\u00e5fstr\u00f6m. Dette gj\u00f8r at \u00adfiguren beveger seg mellom ulike steder tid, rom og sammenhenger.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Jan H\u00e5fstr\u00f6m<\/strong> (f. 1937, Vallentuna, \u00adSverige) arbeider med et visuelt spr\u00e5k, der enkelte figurer og motiver stadig vender tilbake i nye former og sammenhenger. <strong>Mr. Walker<\/strong> er den mest kjente av disse figurene. <\/em><\/p>\n            <\/div>\r\n        \r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n\r\n<div class=\"container\">\r\n\r\n    <div id=\"gallery--block_c780bce2d180335eb81cc16dfadb60de\" class=\"root-level-block gallery\">\r\n\r\n    \r\n            <div class=\"acf-gallery-grid\">\r\n                            <figure class=\"lightbox-trigger\">\r\n                    <div>\r\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bomuldsfabriken.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9235-Walker-2000x1250-px.avif\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:100%; display:block;\">\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                                    <\/figure>\r\n                            <figure class=\"lightbox-trigger\">\r\n                    <div>\r\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bomuldsfabriken.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/010-Jan-Hafstrom-Mr-Walker-2000x1340.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:100%; display:block;\">\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                                    <\/figure>\r\n                            <figure class=\"lightbox-trigger\">\r\n                    <div>\r\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bomuldsfabriken.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9239-Walker-2000x1250-px.avif\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:100%; display:block;\">\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                                    <\/figure>\r\n                            <figure class=\"lightbox-trigger\">\r\n                    <div>\r\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bomuldsfabriken.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9234-Walker-2000x1250-px.avif\" alt=\"\" style=\"width:100%; display:block;\">\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n                                    <\/figure>\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n    \r\n    <\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2685,"parent":649,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1867","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.0 -
