The Bel group and Lab’Bel are delighted to celebrate the twelfth anniversary of The Laughing Cow© Collector’s Edition Boxes. These yearly editions allow the brand to renew and update the connections it has cultivated with artists since its inception in 1921. After Hans-Peter Feldmann, Thomas Bayrle, Jonathan Monk, Wim Delvoye, Karin Sander, Daniel Buren, Mel Bochner, Rosemarie Trockel, Franz Erhard Walther, Martha Wilson, and Cildo Meireles, Danish artist Henrik Olesen has been entrusted with the creation of the twelfth Collector’s Edition Box.

Born in 1967 in Denmark, Henrik Olesen lives and works in Berlin. Through documented research
in fields as diverse as law, the natural sciences, art history, and the media, he explores issues of
identity, language, and representation in order to question the norms and power relations that
govern our societies. His highly conceptual work encompasses collages, posters, texts, sculptures,
installations, and architectural inventions. He often adopts a radical and frequently minimal
aesthetic.

As every year, the visual of the box will not be revealed until autumn 2025.
