Sculpture Bertil Lundgren 1971
A primitive biomorphic sculpture entitled 'Fabeldjur', meaning mystical beast in Swedish by the Swedish artist and designer Bertil Hugo Lundgren (1934-2020).
This wonderful sculpture with it's arbitary holes and hollows feels like an escapist abstract depiction of bones. Reminiscent of the British artist Henry Moore and his fascination and studies of stones, bones and shells; 'Bones have a marvellous structural strength and a hard tenseness of form, subtle transition of one shape into the next and a great variety in section (Henry Moore, Catalougue of an exhibition at the Tate Gallery, 1968).
Lundgren was most known for designing the Hållfast series for the Swedish porcelain company, Rörstrand where he worked between 1974-1979. His objects have been commissioned for many public sculptures and exhibited at galleries and art schools around Gothenberg, Sweden.
Swedish, signed and dated 'Bertil Lundgren, Goteborg, Fabeldjur'. Limited edition of 2/30. Dated 1971. Wood plinth.
