He often referring to art history and placing symbols and details of pop culture in a new context. FEM MYROR ÄR FLER ÄN FYRA ELEFANTER | In the 70s Owe Gustafson created perhaps his most famous work, the animations to the cult children’s TV-program Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter (Five ants are more than four elephants). These animations gave Owe Gustafson an obvious place in the Swedish history and in the heart of the Swedish people. Owe Gustafson created the idea and the design of the animations. Owe is the father of the iconic elephants, ants and other cartoon animals. Altogether created Owe Gustafson thousands of original drawings into animations for the TV-program. Today only a few of these original drawings remains. Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter (Five ants are more than four elephants) were immediately given a great impact and was a huge success. The program Fem myror är fler än fyra elefanter (Five ants are more than four elephants) is voted and honored by the title “Best Swedish children’s programs of all time”. TINTIN | The Tintin books were not available in Swedish when I was a child. They came first in the sixties. My children read them with delight. To entertain them, I began to do my own images, in which Tintin characteristic tuft of hair was visible. It ended up with a portfolio containing these illustrations. Since I was unsure about the copyright, I sent the portfolio to Hergé. I got a very friendly letter back in which he gave his approval. Each year, until his death, I then received a Christmas card from Hergé. OWE ABOUT OWE | I want to illustrate as Miles Davis plays the trumpet. Never a tone too much.
