The artist – Bosse Andersson
The artist Bosse Andersson is a Swedish visual artist based in Stockholm. His painting is characterised by colourful yet austere landscapes in which perspective is twisted and tested.
Background & style
Andersson is described as a visual artist with the landscape as his starting point and a way of seeing that moves between proximity and distance – motifs that, up close, can dissolve into dabs of colour but, from a distance, become landscapes. He lives and works in Stockholm.
Education
He has studied at art schools in Västerås, at Idun Lovén in Stockholm, and at the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm.
Working methods & motifs
His painting moves on the border between the sensual and the austere: colourful yet stark, with a play on perception and perspective that recurs in descriptions of his work.
Materials & technique
Andersson works in oil, often on canvas or panel – something that is evident from several auction descriptions of his works.
