Ivan Ivarson
Ivan Ivarson (1900–1939), was an artist who belonged to the artist group Gothenburg Colorists. He started at Valand's painting school in Gothenburg in 1922, under Tor Bjurström. Ivarson married in Paris, in February 1928, the sculptor Märta Taube, sister of Evert Taube & Karin Parrow, and they had their son Per together in August of the same year. It is not only the color that Ivarson develops during this time. Even the brushstroke is in harmony with the color, broadly and quickly he lets the color flow across the canvas, intuitively but precisely. His art consisted of a sensitivity that was part of Ivarson's artistry. "To paint is to compose in color - if the color does not play the first role, it can certainly be art - but not painting."
Upcoming Exhibitions
Art is best experienced live. Openings are arranged at the gallery approximately once a month, all year round. Here you can experience a wide selection that alternates between contemporary art, where the artist himself is often present, and classic or modern collections.
