Peter Busch-Jensen. Copenhagen, Denmark
Peter is a teacher of psychology from Scandinavia who does sand sculpting
on the side as a paid hobby. He has traveled to Asia, America, Spain and
other countries for his work in sand. His wife Maria is also a talented
sand sculptor , and together they have a son who seems destined to grow
up playing in the sand too. Peter is a founding member of the group that
first brought pro sand sculpting as a cultural element to Denmark.
He is almost finished with his thesis, and will get his Ph.D. degree
within the next year.
He also enjoys chess and badminton.
Though he has been invited a few times before, this is the
first time he has been able to join us in Jesolo. Hopefully it will not
be the last time. Peter was also in the Sultans Of Sand International Expo
in Boston.

2.) Classic Horror
Sculpted by Peter Busch Jensen – Denmark
There is a certain thrill that exists in being scared. Masters
of the craft like Lon Chaney, who, in the silent era played The Phantom
of the Opera and The Hunchback Of Notre Dame, have portrayed monsters of
all sorts on film from the very start.
Later in the classic period of horror, which was the late 1930’s
– 1950’s Universal Studios owned the genre of Horror with such black and
white standards as Dracula, starring Bella Legosi, and Frankenstein with
Boris Karloff. Other features of the time were the Wolfman with Lon Chaney
Jr, and The Mummy, also with Boris Karloff.
The monster to have the most versions on film was the Vampire,
who started out in the silent era of film as Nosferatu. It evolved more,
up through the 1990’s to today with over a dozen different vampire movies
making it to the big screen (some even being comedies).
Numerous contemporary artists have played the Vampire role. Including:
Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Wesley Snipes, Gary Oldman, Antonio Banderas, Jada
Pinkett-Smith and George Hamilton.
