Bengt Lindström Abstract Prints
Swedish, 1925-2008
Bengt Lindström began his artistic training by attending the Stockholm Academy (1944-1945) and the Isaac Grünewald School of Painting. He then drew with Aksel Jorgensen in Copenhagen in 1946, before going to Chicago (1946-1947) and moving to Paris. There he worked in the studios of Fernand Léger and André Lhote.
In 1949, he began to paint less figuratively and more colourfully. He had his first solo exhibition in Sweden in 1954 at the Gummesson Art Fair. From the 1950s onwards, he participated in several group exhibitions and salons in Paris (Réalités nouvelles; Salon d'octobre).
Although he is often formally associated with Cobra painting and is a friend of Jorn, the artist claims to be more influenced by the Nordic painting of Nolde, Munch or Ensor. He is also influenced by folk art, Sami mythology and the shamans of the Far North.to

"Hans Hartung
B. 1904, LEIPZIG, GERMANY; D. 1989, ANTIBES, FRANCE
Hans Hartung was born on September 21, 1904, in Leipzig, Germany. He cultivated interests in philosophy, astronomy, music, and religion at a young age before he turned to painting. Early in his career he found inspiration in the works of Rembrandt van Rijn and Francisco de Goya, and later influences included Lovis Corinth, Oskar Kokoschka, Emil Nolde, and Max Slevogt. At just 17, Hartung began to experiment with abstraction, synthesizing the graphic techniques of his artistic models while completely eliminating figurative elements.
Hartung entered the Universität Leipzig in 1924 to study philosophy and art history but left to concentrate on painting at the Kunstakademie, Leipzig. While Hartung was advised to pursue further training at the Bauhaus, he opted to study at the Kunstakademie, Dresden. In 1926 Hartung saw an exhibition of international art in Dresden, which exposed him to Cubism and other modern styles that had emerged in France. His encounters with works by Georges Braque, Juan Gris, Henri Matisse, and Pablo Picasso, along with various travels abroad, encouraged him to move to Paris in 1926, where he spent the majority of his time until 1932, although he passed the summer of 1928 in Munich studying under artist and theorist Max Dörner.
In 1929 Hartung married the Norwegian painter Anna-Eva Bergman. After several years abroad, they tried to reestablish themselves in Berlin in 1935 but were soon forced into exile by the National Socialist regime. In the years leading up to World War II, Hartung's work reflected his attempts to reconcile chance and control, combining expressive graphic elements with patches of black and color to produce a sense of spontaneity. After the outbreak of the war, Hartung served in the Foreign Legion (1939–40), and later in the Free French (1943–44). He was gravely wounded at the German Front, and one of his legs was amputated. In 1945 he returned to Paris and resumed painting and the following year earned French citizenship.
Hartung was a major figure in Art Informel and Tachisme (from the French tache, meaning blot or stain). While Hartung's postwar paintings are generally described as exhibiting a calligraphic quality, his work moved through a series of phases, becoming less spontaneous and more formally aggressive than his work from the late 1930s. In many works of the late 1940s and early 1950s, such as T-50 Painting 8 (T-50 peinture 8, 1950), he applied large areas of color to the canvas on which he painted a combination of bold black brushstrokes and thinner frenetic linear strokes.
Hartung received several international awards, including the 1956 award for the Europe-Africa section at the Guggenheim International Award and the International Grand Prize for painting at the 1960 Venice Biennale. His first major group show was organized by curator and critic Christian Zervos at the Jeu de Paume, Paris (1937). After settling permanently in Paris, he exhibited regularly at the Salon des Surindépendants (1935, 1937, 1945). His first solo show took place at Galerie Lydia...

Good conditions
Bengt Lindström was born in Storsjökappel, a small village in Norrland, Sweden, on 3 September 1925. A few days after his birth, his godfather, the leader of the local Lapps, administered the baptism of the earth to him, making him pass through the roots of a
dead tree, to order to ensure the protection of the gods against the dangers of life.
The child grows up in this immense, harsh and mysterious land covered with lakes and forests where the legends and myths of the Great North hover.
At ten years old his parents sent him to school in Härnösand, where he undertook scientific studies and where he began to paint. In 1944 he enrolled at the School of Fine Arts in Stockholm and in 1945 he moved to the School of Fine Arts in Copenhagen, at
Aksel Jørgensen. In 1946 he was in Chicago where he attended courses at the Art Institute for a year. In 1947 he arrived in Paris, near Fernanad Léger, then in Montparnasse, at the André Lothe Academy where he met Marie-Louise Boudriot whom he married
in 1951. In 1949 he visited Florence and Assisi, remaining fascinated by the frescoes of Giotto and Cimabue. In 1950, a scholarship from a Swedish newspaper allowed him to open his first atelier in the Marne Valley. First group exhibition in 1953 at the Craven
Gallery in Paris. First individual exhibition in 1954 at Gummesons Konstgalleri in Stockholm. From these years onwards he usually stays between France and Sweden. In 1955 he also began to try his hand at lithography.
In 1958 he exhibited in Paris at the Galerie Breteau, where the "masks", the "gods" and the "monsters" appeared for the first time. In 1959 he participated in “L’Europe nouvelle” in Lausanne.
In 1961 he exhibited at the Tooth Gallery in London in a collective exhibition and with a solo exhibition at the Galerie le Zodiaque in Brussels. In 1965 he exhibited in Paris at the Galerie Rive Gauche, in Lille at the Galerie Nord and in Copenhagen at the Galerie
Birch. In 1966 he exhibited at the Konstmuseum in Gothenburg. In 1967 he exhibited at the Carnegie Institute in Pittsburgh and at the Galerie Seibu in Tokyo. From 1968 to 1976 he exhibited annually at the Galerie Ariel for which he created a series of
