Description
Gerd Göran
Gerd is born 1919, Karmansbo Sweden. She married the artist Niklas Göran 1943. The couple moved to Sångshyttan 1953, they have six children. Gerd studied textile desing at University of Arts, Craft and Design, Stockholm (1936-41). She has had several separate exhibitions and is represented at museums, municipalities and county councils.
Gerd feels like a very young and versatile artist, still active at the age of 102. From textile designs to watercolor, oil and finally acrylic, Gerd has over the years explored the magic of color in the face of the seasonal shifs of nature. She has been driven by finding the motifs around the farm in Sångshyttan and letting them come to life on the canvas, to the delight of the many people who over the years have found their way to her art.
Here we present an exhibition called Variation on sunflower
