Lars Endel Roger Vilks Lanat (born 20 June 1946) is a Swedish artist, Doctor of Philosophy, and activist who garnered fame and notoriety for his drawings of Muhammad, which resulted in at least two failed attempts by Islamic extremists to murder him. He is also known for his sculptures, Nimis and Arx, made entirely of drift wood, and the small area where the sculptures are located which was proclaimed by Vilks as an independent country, "Ladonia".
Vilks was born in Helsingborg, Sweden, to a Latvian father and a Swedish mother. He earned his doctoral degree in art history from Lund University in 1987, and worked at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts from 1988 to 1997. From 1997 to 2003, he was a professor in art theory at the Bergen National Academy of the Arts. As an art theorist, Vilks is a proponent of the institutional theory of art.
Although an academically trained art theorist, Vilks is a self-taught artist. In the 1970s, he started painting, and in 1984, he embarked on creating the idiosyncratic sculptures that have been his hallmark, starting with Nimis. At this time, in the early 1980s, postmodernism made its definite entry into the Swedish art scene, using inspiration from e.g. the French art philosopher Jean-François Lyotard. Conceptual artists took the place of the earlier modernists on the contemporary art scene. These conceptual artists did not want their art to have any aesthetic or programmatic content, but often focused on the artist's self. Vilks was part of this movement in Sweden. He turned himself in as a piece of art to the spring saloon at Vikingsberg, Helsingborg, and turned his own car into a piece of art at the fall exhibition at Skånes konstförening.
This video, while not as violent as some of the other posted videos, is actually really scary. Let me tell you why: First, the video is fairly long, about 11 minutes, and while I encourage everyone to view the entire event, there are two important highlights. The actual attack happens at just under 1 minute. Then comes the typical Muslim outrage, blah, blah, blah, and at the 5:19 mark you can see the irate Muslims shouting "Sweden is our country too!" Here's the problem... no, it's not your country -- you are guests there. I lived in Sweden in 1985 which is when the Muslims started immigrating to the country en mass. Sweden allowed them in for reasons of political asylum and gave them apartments, furniture, TVs, VCRs and money for food. That was pretty generous of the governm...

Nimis (av latin, "för mycket") är ett platsspecifikt konstverk av Lars Vilks på platsen Håle stenar[1] i Kullabergs naturreservat i nordvästra Skåne. Nimis är byggt av drivved och består av glest ihopspikade plankor och trägrenar som bildar gångar, rum och torn. Uppförandet av Nimis började i juli 1980[2] som Vilks "hämnd på havet" efter att ha varit nära att drunkna,[3] men också som en kommentar till den rådande konsttrenden, som gällde att "ingenting var beständigt".[4] Myndigheterna kände inte till Nimis existens förrän 1982, varefter föreläggande gjordes om rivning såsom svartbygge, vilket ledde till en lång rättslig process som Vilks tog in i sin konstnärliga praktik och betraktade som en del av konstverket. Det fysiska verket växte och mätte efter några år över 100 meter på längden...
