Gustav Vigeland: The Power And Feeling Of Sculpture

Gustav Vigeland (1869-1943) is one of the greatest and most striking sculptors in Scandinavian art history. Influenced by the Antiquity, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance and not least by Auguste Rodin, he nevertheless chose his own path and broke new ground. His art is characterised by an emotional and dramatic expression that portrays the human and her stages of life.
