Troels Wörsel (Nov. 10, 1950 - 2018) was a Danish conceptual artist who lived abroad since 1979 - first in Germany, then in Italy. Wörsel always explored the balance between perception and representation in art - perhaps inspired by Wittgenstein and other philosophers he admired.
His work is found at all large Danish museums and quite a few select foreign ones, including MoMA, Centre Pompidou in Paris ,Moderna Museet Stockholm, Kiasma in Helsinki, and Nasjonalmuseet Oslo.
