Swedish artist Anders Wollin
If reality is a scene, someone has to paint the gigantic picture of things. If life is created out of dreams, someone has to paint (create) as if he was dreaming Life.

  • We are not believers, we are observers, and thus we can't believe in anything we have not yet seen. Art is the transcendent forum of seeing that which is not yet seen and - at its best - making it both prominent and real.

    Resumé

    I returned to my hometown Gothenburg in 2002, after a period of seven years as a young artist living and working at various places around Sweden, years that I in 2003 summarized into a book about "my own schooling process". This means that I took a path outside the formal academies, which of course was much harder, but a natural choice to me.

    I could start to sell my work from the start, at the age of 23, working on a full-time basis. Some time in 2004-2005, a new style started to take form, which has resulted in some very succesfull exhibitions. Today I am well asked for in many parts of the country and from time to time I seek paths to an international career, so far my art has been shown in Paris, Los Angeles and in Holland. My next ambition is to present the years 2005-2008 into a book in Swedish, and after that hopefully a next international artbook that will complete my first one into a book-box with both present and past. For now, I mostly look forward to present the fullness of the 2008's work.

    If you have any inquires about this new collection, you can send me an e-mail.
