Jan-Thomas Ölund

I am a visual art painter, showcases a collection of abstract and post-minimalistic paintings that reflect my innovative approach to contemporary art. My work is characterized by its exploration of form, color, and the essence of minimalism, stripping down to the fundamental aspects of visual expression. My abstract works often feature a vibrant palette and dynamic compositions that challenge the viewer's perception, while his post-minimalistic pieces focus on simplicity and the purity of line and space. Through art, I invites the audience to engage with the underlying emotions and concepts, making each piece a unique exploration of the visual language. My work was featured in the Saatchi art fall 2016 catalog.
The majority of my exhibitions have occurred in Sweden, and my artwork has been purchased by private collectors and public institutions in that country. On an international scale, my art has been showcased in various private and public venues. In 2019, my most recent piece was sold to Upfor gallery in Portland, OR, USA.
