Original Swedish Oil on Canvas – “Abstract Composition” by Per‑Gunnar Sörquist – Signed & Dated 1968 – Vintage & Framed – 77 × 63 cm (30.3" × 24.8")
A striking modernist oil on canvas by Per‑Gunnar Sörquist, dated 1968. Signed on the front “PSS‑68” and on the reverse “Per‑Gunnar Sörquist / Sörqvist – 1968,” the composition presents a vibrant abstract motif executed in impasto technique. The painting features a turquoise/blue base, balanced with white/gray, and contrasted by red/orange accents — a classic 1960s modernist palette. Strongly influenced by Abstract Expressionism and Art Informel, the work demonstrates the structural color play often taught in art education for its ability to create excitement without disorder. Presented in its original period frame marked “N:1,” the piece remains in good vintage condition with age‑appropriate wear.
