AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This non-figurative lithograph by Swedish artist Bengt Orup (1916–1996) is framed with a window mat behind glass. The frame measures 41.5 x 2.5 x 51.5 cm (H x W x D); the image is 29 x 40. The lithograph is hand-signed and numbered and is in good condition.
Bengt Orup was a pioneer of Swedish postwar modernism. In 1946 Orup returned to Paris for a year, where he first experimented with pure, geometric forms. During the late 1940s and early 1950s, Orup created a series of l'art concret paintings with refined geometric shapes and strong contrasts. Art Concret was an avant-garde group of artists founded in 1929 in Paris, which championed a geometrical abstract art closely related to the aesthetics of neoplasticism.
The lithograph is documented in “Carlotta,” the database of museum collections in Sweden: https://museum.helsingborg.se/web/object/178634.
