Small
Biography.
I was born in Sweden in 1955, in 1959 my family moved to Paris,
and I went to french and international schools.When I turned 18,
I decided to dedicate myself to art and started studying etching
with Henri Goetz, american artist who had a school in Montparnasse.
I then was admitted in the beaux-arts where I studied painting
and lithography. The time in the Paris art school was followed
by a year in Sweden where I pursued the lithography studies with
Bertil Lundberg, renown swedish print maker. After finished studies,
some traveling in europe and africa, a few experiences exhibiting
my work, I visited New York in 1980 and settled there and stayed
until 1989. New York had a strong impact on me, the first years
were equivalent to being back to school,and my work went through
a total revolution. The second part of the stay was very productive
and I had a number of exhibitions in New York and other parts
of the states. In the end of the eighties, I gradually moved back
to Europe and chose Paris as a base. In 1991, during a trip to
Berlin, I met an artist book publisher and the same year my first
artist book was published in collaboration with an new york poet
friend. I rented a studio in Berlin and worked on numerous artist
book projects,and many exhibitions in Berlin and throughout Germany.
In the 90 s I had numerous exhibitions in Europe, especially Sweden,
Germany and France, and occasional events in United States, including
sales of artist books to different institutions. I started traveling
and working between studios in the south of Sweden, Berlin and
Paris, which I still do to this day.
