Muut tiedot
”Landscape with shack” (Landskap med hydda) is painted with loose yet assertive brushstrokes of rich earthy colors. Each hue exists in its own plane, yet synchronizes with the rest to construct a enthralling composition. The final work sits somewhere between abstraction and landscape painting, creating a mysterious window to the outside world that feels simultaneously perplexing and familiar. Andreas Eriksson makes paintings that allude to ideas of the sublime in Northern European painting. His studio, which is located deep in the Swedish countryside of Medelplana, serves as inspiration for his work. The natural surroundings experienced on a daily basis provide a rich source material for his acutely atmospheric paintings.
Lisää taiteilijasta Andreas Eriksson
Andreas Eriksson is a Swedish artist, born in 1975 in Lidköping. Eriksson studied at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm between 1993 and 1998, and works with various techniques in his artistic practice, including painting, photography, sculpture, textiles, and graphics.
A recurring theme in Andreas Eriksson's works is the presence of nature; the light over meadows, forests, and mountains is shaped into structures, blocks of color, and organic formations. Often, a motif emerges that can be interpreted as landscapes, shifting between figurative and abstract spatialities. However, Eriksson suggests that the rich and almost sculptural works can just as easily be seen as something other than interpretations of nature; as internal, diffuse landscapes where the viewer can linger.
After a period of work in Berlin, Andreas Eriksson now resides in Medelplana on Kinnekulle in Västergötland. In 2011, he represented Sweden at the Venice Biennale with Fia Backström. Eriksson is also represented at institutions such as the Gothenburg Museum of Art, Moderna Museet in Stockholm, the Nasher and David J. Haemseigger Collection of Contemporary Art in the USA, the Sara Hilden Art Museum in Finland, and the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Denmark. He became a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Fine Arts in 2014.
