Galleri Viktoria

 

From the early 50ths and to this day there has been a great expansion in the art world. The boundaries between the different art forms have started to scatter. Diversions between generations have become more and more invisible. Styles and art forms are mixed together deep and nourishing well where you can feed your senses. This is a golden era in which I have had the privilege to run my gallery.

 

African art are a special selection in the collections of our gallery. It is with great pleasure and passion that I have gathered all the pieces available and the collection have resulted in one of the greatest in Sweden.

 

In the early 60ths I meet Bengt Lindström in Paris, who introduced me to several of the most interesting artist of its time such as Jorn, Appel, Fontana, Baj, Tapies, Clavé and many more. During the years I have learnt to know several of our Swedish artists as well. An artist I have introduced my self to the Swedish market was Mauritz Karström and his art soon became a great success. Karström tragically passed away in 2005, we remember him as a great talent and he still lives on through his art.

 

Galleri Viktoria have today cooperation’s with several prominent Swedish artists such as Kjell Ringi, Pontus Carle, Mats Christoffersson and our upcoming artist from Stockholm, Anneli Nise.
