LARS ENGLUND is one of the best known Sweden’s leading artists, having come to the fore in the 1960s and 1970s. His work is characterized by an obsession with structure, an exploration of form which draws its abstraction from the structural elements of construction, materials and the dynamic relationship between shapes.

Starting initially as a painter, ENGLUND turned to working in three dimension since the 1960s. With scientific exactitude, ENGLUND uses mathematical abstraction to juxtapose forms created according to rules as rigid as they are poetic. And by using unusual, and largely unexplored materials like construction materials, his unique body of work looks at once experimental, industrial and organic.

LARS ENGLUND was honoured with a comprehensive retrospective at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm in 2005
