Per Hampus à un nom unique à l’image de sa réalisation. Ce metteur en scène suédois, sain de corps et d’esprit, est un spécialiste du sport et passionné de pop-culture qui a le secret pour fabriquer des images à couper le souffle. On se souvient par exemple de Hyped, LE film dédié au snowboard, sorte « d’excitation ultime » visuelle. Ou encore de son documentaire révolutionnaire pour Nike qui en a fait le film phare de la marque pour encore longtemps.
La « youth culture » dont il est emprunt et son approche très cinématographique du monde créent une sorte d’alchimie qui fonctionne aussi bien pour un spectateur à Stockholm qu’à Los Angeles. Les deux villes où il passe sa vie justement. Mais son dernier film se situe ailleurs, sur une île des Bahamas, dans un autre paradis nommé Atlantis.
Per Hampus y joue des codes de films touristiques en les rendant plus forts. Par la puissance de ses images, le montage à la fois cut et très lancinant, sorte d’up&down maitrisé ou quelque soit votre état vous avez l’impression d’avoir mangé de l’oxygène en barre. C’est la magie de Per Hampus, ses images sont comme des envies subites, des montées d’adrénaline qui font du bien.
Récemment représenté en France par la société de production de Soldats (tenue de main de maitre par de Pierre Cazenave), qui a eu la bonne idée d’offrir les talents de Per Hampus à la France. Bienvenue chez nous Per, nous sommes déjà tous impatients de voir ton prochain film !

![The intersection of persona, product, propaganda, and profit. In 2021 is the brand Supreme any different than the brand GAGOSIAN? No. They are both strategic entities focused on valuations, cultural and capital. Each bestow status on their investors. What I am fascinated by is that they both trade in Dead Data. I find no intellectual difference between a Supreme x John Woo collaboration as GAGOSIAN exhibiting Harmony Korine’s paintings. In each case the two of them are basing the products social influence and exchange value on established [Dead] [Data] information. Both are DOA. Each of the artists and brands chosen for the first exhibition STUPID and the second DROPS are attempting an impossible narrative, to raise dead informational bits. What I find Intellectually horrifying is the scale of the audience and the financial market for this morbid display. The culturally transgressive destroys established values. The works in STUPID and DROPS are intellectual crimes in that they present what has already lost all meaning and value and the propaganda creates an altogether false meta-value. The transgressive preserves creative innocence by exposing the inherent corruption of the status quo.
