Torsten Andersson – The Weight of Language

Torsten Andersson’s (1926–2009) oeuvre is unique – with great integrity and a seriousness that today can feel both unfamiliar and longed for, but which also contains a kind of exhilarating joy and sense of space. He painted in large format, distinct, free-standing forms occupy the surface – paintings that are often a kind of depiction of sculptures.
