About the Item
This is one of Pierre Olofssons important works. It was created in 1964 for the Post Office in Kiruna, North of Sweden. The wall sculpture covered a long wall at the office and consists of seven separate units. The sculpture is seen on a whole page in Millroths book about the life works of Pierre Olofsson.
The wall sculpture was, after that the Post office in Kiruna closed, moved to the main Postoffice in Tomteboda, Solna outside Stockholm.
Every section of the sculpture is made out of Pierre Olofssons characteristic circular forms in happy colours.
All parts are made of wood that are panted in his very characteristically colours.
The energy of this wall sculpture is rare and unique. This is the 1960s at its best. Bright happy colours and shapes that create patters and shadows that could belong in a James Bond movie.
Pierre Olofsson is one of Swedens most important artists of this period. He is represented in numeral museums and has created many pieces of art in public places.
