Eric Cederberg Paintings
Swedish, 1897-1984
Eric Cederberg represents a subtle but no less significant strand of Nordic Surrealism. Working in the postwar period, he developed a Surrealist approach influenced by Magritte— calm, lucid, and rich in visual paradox. His paintings reveal a poetic logic at once restrained and unsettling, emblematic of a “smooth Surrealism” unique to the North. Though he worked outside formal Surrealist circles, his contribution demonstrates how deeply Surrealist thought penetrated Nordic art by the mid-20th century, reshaping everyday scenes into sites of symbolic transformation. - Biography by Nagas, New Yorkto
