GSZON
Göran Sveningzon (signature GSZON). Swedish artist, born 1964. His work is characterized by gestural expressions of colours. With the "Tilted Mass" paintings he has continued his work with the material's ability to change the pictoral surface.
His interest in abstractions evolved during basic art-education years in the 80s in parallel with solo exhibitions in cafes and smaller galleries. Through continued cultural studies at university, historical references such as Byzantine mosaic art of Ravenna became a decisive inspiration to see colours more as poetry, particularly reflected in his public works during the 90s.
After several years in the graphic industry, he returned to the studies in art and also began to work with digital music. He received a bachelor's degree 2020 and became a member of KRO (Swedish Artists' Association) in 2022.
