Artwork Description:
LANGE-SREN (TALL CHARLIE)
LANGE-SREN is a giraffe.
He has a long career behind him. He started his career as a
children's book character.
He was then published on post cards as light blue with dark
blue spots and was sold at FORMLAND at the Herning Fair
Centre.
He was then published as a poster where he was yellow with
blue spots.
He was a model in "Barnets Bog" (Child's Book) where he was
also yellow with blue spots, and he was used to illustrate the height of a child.
As some people have associated his spots with cheese, he is displayed in an original cut at ARLA in Vejle.
He was somewhat honoured when he, green with yellow spots (and red shoes!), advertised for the shoe chain Din
Grnne Skobutik's 120 shops on 2 million plastic bags. In this connection he was also portrayed on posters and
greetings card. And the chain's wrapping paper was green with yellow spots.
The height of LANGE-SREN's career has now been reached. He is being portrayed on miles of fabric at VEJTEX. In
several color combinations.
