A lively and brilliantly executed mid-century modernist style interior still life composition, executed in gouache.

Brown & Black
$1,273.00
Available

Free shipping to UK, Europe and Singapore.

A striking original mid century modernist composition, painted onto board and dated 1968 by the established Swedish artist Gunnar Hållander (1915-1980), whose artworks have been represented in public collections including the National Museum and Moderna Museet in Stockholm, the Sundsvall Museum, and the Institut Tessinin in Paris.

A group of mostly unidentifiable objects in a very restrained palette sit against a grey background. This still life leans towards abstraction, with the artist focusing on the forms of the objects and how the elements interact with one another. There is an invisible tension between the objects, as they push and pull against one another. However, there is a very balanced rhythm through the picture, encouraging us viewers to weave our view in and out, up and down and around the composition to explore the form of each object. The artist uses a restrained palette – the picture is almost monochrome, except for the pops of orange and pink, which draws our eyes to the centre of the picture. There is a wonderful depth to the composition, as well as a very satisfying matte finish to the overall surface.

This original oil on board is wonderfully presented in a distressed frame with an inner linen border. The painting is in excellent vintage condition, and the frame has slight wear but this suits its overall distressed style.

Sold

SOLD

An elegant mid-century still life composition that presents a pared-back arrangement of a single green pear alongside a white pitcher, executed in oil onto canvas.

Green Apples & Golden Pears

Sold

SOLD

An mid-century modernist still life captures a crisp arrangement of three green apples and two golden pears set against a cool-toned tabletop, executed oil oil onto board and dated 1957.

The fruits are rendered with bold, simplified forms and flat planes of colour, each outlined with confident, dark contours that lend a graphic quality to the composition. The artist plays with angular shadows in deep violet and blue, creating a striking contrast against the pale lavender and white ground, while a touch of light blue along the left edge suggests a shift in surface or perspective.

The palette is vivid and complementary: fresh, luscious greens for the apples, golden browns for the pears, and a cool spectrum of purples and blues in the shadows and background. Broad, visible brushstrokes add texture and vitality, with areas of paint applied in solid, unblended blocks to enhance the modernist aesthetic.

This oil on board is housed in a classic wooden frame with a thin gilt inner edge and set within a wide, grey-coloured mount.
