Avant-garde performance artist Kjartan Slettemark expresses his long-term fascination with Richard Nixon in many ways. In 1971 he added a hand holding a cup of coffee to Nixon's election poster and pasted the result all over Stockholm. He increasingly identified with Nixon during Watergate, and even succeeded in gaining access to the US with a passport showing a manipulated picture of the former president.
