Odenplan

Michael Söderlundh (born 1942 in Leksand) is a Swedish artist based in Stockholm. Since the mid-1960s, his work has been presented in numerous solo and group exhibitions. ​In Söderlundh’s paintings there is always the presence of something unexpected, as if the image might at any moment take another direction. It is precisely this openness that makes his artistic practice as compelling today as when it first began.
