Large Contemporary Paper Assemblage In Warm Maroon Brown Color By Bo SällStröm

Circa 1993

About the Item

A striking contemporary assemblage that exudes warmth and an botanical-inspired charm. Thin strips of newspaper have been expertly bundled together and consistently duplicated in a longline pattern, creating an eye-catching and highly decorative piece that's sure to capture attention. The artwork was acquired from the artist atelier and is attributed to Swedish artist Bo Sällström (1932-1999), who has also created similar pieces. A clue to the reliefs creation date can be found in one of the newspaper strips, which reveals the year '1993', making it a piece from the Sällström's late career and life. Sällström was trained at the School of Design and Crafts (HDK) and the Valand Academy, where he became the head in the 1980s. Throughout his career he has travelled to several countries such as Italy, France, and the Netherlands for studying art. His work is represented at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm, and he's created numerous public pieces throughout his career. The assemblage is presented in a new bespoke floating frame, sustainably crafted from an old mahogany beam. The warm and consistent maroon-brown coloring paired with the uneven and vivid surface makes the assemblage highly decorative, adding a touch of contemporary and material boldness to any room. The artwork is in excellent condition and ready to hang.

  • "Ribbon" Extra-Large Contemporary Landscape Painting By American Martin Hoffman
    By Martin Hoffman
    Located in Frederiksberg C, DK
    Introducing "Ribbon," an extraordinary painting from the "Jersey Meadow Series" by Martin Hoffman in the 1970s. From the 1970s onwards, Hoffman's career showcased a masterful combination of beautiful painting techniques and challenging subject matter. This contemporary painting depicts an abandoned landscape with a hypnotic blue plastic ribbon at its center. Hoffman's landscape creates an almost mesmerizing effect, where the subject matter of destruction and decay is presented poetically. The warm shades of grey with hints of blue, brown, and purple create a limited yet powerful palette that enhances the melancholic beauty of the painting. The painting measures 151cm x 202cm / 59.5in x 79.5in and is signed 'Martin Hoffman' on the reverse side of the canvas. It is titled 'Ribbon' and is dated '73.' Additionally, the artist specifies that the painting is part of the 'Jersey Meadow Series.' It is ready to hang and comes with a silver-painted frame. The condition of the painting is great, with hardly any signs of wear. The frame has a few scratches but is otherwise in good condition. Artist Bio: Martin Hoffman was a versatile artist and illustrator, mostly known for his paintings. He was a self-taught painter and a gifted drummer who had worked as an art director for the Miami News, Graphic Arts Inc., and Steiner & Wall Advertising.
