LÉVÊQUE (Jean-Jacques). Gustav Bolin - Lot 165

LÉVÊQUE (Jean-Jacques). Gustav Bolin Paris, Chêne / Art Saint-Honoré, circa 1988. A major monograph devoted to the Swedish painter Gustav Bolin (1920–1999), a distinctive figure in postwar European lyrical abstraction. Having settled in France after World War II, Bolin developed a personal body of work in which geometric structures, rhythmic use of color, and organic forms are balanced in a constant quest for visual harmony. Written by Jean-Jacques Lévêque, a renowned art critic and historian, this book traces the artist’s entire career and reproduces a vast body of oil paintings, gouaches, drawings, and monumental compositions. Its abundant color illustrations make it the definitive reference work on Gustav Bolin today. A beautiful copy with an illustrated dust jacket.
