"Färgformer strömma i harmoni till varandra" : En undersökning i rörelseuttryck i Otto G. Carlsunds måleri / "Colored shapes stream harmoniously towards each other" : A study in expressions of movement in works by Otto G. Carlsund

Sjölin, Nils January 2020 (has links)
This essay aims to examine the manifestations of physical movement in two paintings by the Swedish modernist Otto G. Carlsund and to show aesthetic similarities to other modernist artists of the 1920s avant-garde. The method applied is Erwin Panofsky's Iconology to interpret the illusions of physical movement as expressions of the same ideas and visions that were conveyed by other artists during the same time in history. The results show that all painters included in this essay strived to communicate through motion in order to advocate for their visions of social change they believed their art could contribute to. The ambition to reform societies is interpreted as expressions of a Gesamtkunstwerk, a totalizing project aimed at all institutions of their day.
