One look at Gunnar Norrman’s (1912-2005)works and you are captured by their beauty and tranquility. He had his first one-man show in 1942, and ever since then he has kept his original approach to drawing landscapes, and year after year he has returned to the sea, the clay deposits, where he has lived since his youth. Norrman draws the fine nuances of water and vegetation, the naked branches against March twilight, the reeds lashed by the October winds. Nearness to the sea is essential to his sensibility. This book includes the history of his life and why he started drawing, and how he technically completes his lithographs, drawings and drypoints covering his work from 1941-1987.
