Karin Parrow
Karin Parrow (1900–1984) née Taube, born 1900 in Vinga, died 1984, was a Swedish artist who studied at Valand Art School 1926–1929 and the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris 1929. During her studies at Valand, she had Tor Bjurström as her teacher, who wanted the students to find their individual style. His teaching at Valand would be of great importance for the development of the art movement known as the Gothenburg School. Bjurström taught his students to express themselves in pure color and simple form. Parrow belonged to this group together with her sister Märta Taube who was married to Ivan Ivarson, whose house on Stenungsön in Bohuslän would become an important place for their circle of artists. Parrow painted mainly landscapes, still lifes and portraits, whose work is characterized by a strong sense of empathy and directness. She has participated in several major exhibitions and is represented at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm and the Gothenburg Art Museum, as well as in Gävle, Borås and several other museums. She was the sister of Evert Taube and the artist Märta Taube.

About Gallery Melefors

Johan Melefors, born 1971, founder and CEO of Galleri Melefors, grew up in a family that is the third generation in the auction and antiques industry. Already during his childhood, Johan developed an interest in art and since the early 1990s has collected and traded classic, modern and contemporary art. He started Galleri Melefors in Linköping in 2013 when he moved home from Stockholm to his birthplace of Linköping, which he felt lacked an art store and gallery with a breadth of established collector's art and a well-thought-out and future-oriented contemporary catalog to display.
