About the artist
Max Salmi (Pohjois-Pirkkala 1931 – Kalanti 1995) was a Finnish painter known for his distinctive style and significant contributions to the Finnish art scene.
Born in Pohjois-Pirkkala in Central Finland, Salmi developed a passion for art from an early age. He studied at the Turku Art Academy, where he improved his skills and developed his artistic vision. Influenced by both Finnish and international art movements, Salmi’s work reflected a unique blend of styles and techniques.
During the 1940s and 1950s, Salmi’s art underwent a significant transformation. He experimented with various forms of expression, ranging from figurative to abstract, and explored themes related to nature, folklore, and human emotions. His paintings often featured vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes, creating a sense of energy and movement.

In the 1960s, Salmi’s art evolved further, as he delved into new artistic territories. He embraced elements of pop art and surrealism, incorporating bold imagery and symbolic motifs into his paintings. This phase marked a departure from his earlier styles and demonstrated his willingness to embrace experimentation and innovation.

In this abstracted Interior the artist blends grey and earthtones with strokes of vibrant blues, orange and green. Signed by the artist, right bottom corner. About the artist Louis Nallard (Algiers 1918 – Paris 2016) was a French non-figurative painter of the Nouvelle École de Paris.
