Fantastic work of Art - The pointillist-cubist image is made up of thousands of little coloured, different shaded squares, imitating a mosaic tiles. The technique is very reminiscent of the famous painting ‘Ad Parnassum’ by Paul Klee created in 1932.
The Swedish artist Burén studied art in Berlin and was trained by Jules Schyl. Burén undertook numerous study trips to Germany, Austria and Switzerland, befor returning to his native Sweden. His body of work includes figures in a semi-cubist style, mosaic panels, glas work and intarsia.
His work can be seen in various public places in Sweden, such as the decoration of the Fångvårdsanstalten's church hall in Malmö or the glass mosaics for the Sigfridssalen in Arlöv and his work is held in the Kulturen Museum in Lund, Sweden.
