Bjorn Wiinblad Signed Ceramic Vase, 1972
-
Description
Bjorn Wiinblad (1918-2006) vase of polychrome ceramic. Signed by artist "V24,72 with artist monogram.
Bjørn Wiinblad was born in Copenhagen in 1918. At a very early age, he began to show signs of his talent for drawing and creating imaginative worlds. Aged 17, he began an apprenticeship as a typographer, but soon realized that his heart was set on following the path of an artist.
The women were a consistent theme in the Wiinblad universe and production.
His women displayed a wide range of emotional nuances, and their eyes – specifically, their gaze – were always very special. As a rule, they looked out with openness and curiosity – but with traces of dejection, melancholy and mysticism.
The eyes meant something very special to Wiinblad, so even though he employed a large number of people, he always painted the eyes himself. The personality of the women also found expression through unusual heads and strange, sprout-like ears, short arms, small breasts and angular noses. In other words, the women were intensely ‘Wiinbladian’.
Wiinblad gave them beautiful names: Eva, Cæcilia, Bolette, Celestine, Dyveke and so on. - More Information
