Sigrid Hjertén
The Swedish artist Sigrid Hjertén,
who was active during the first half of the twentieth century, continues
to fascinate. Hjertén worked as an artist for three decades
but she stopped painting since she had fallen ill with schizophrenia
in her fifties.
This summer, 2001, there is an exhibition
at Bror Hjorth's Hus in Uppsala, Sweden, with pictures by Sigrid
Hjertén. The art museum of the Swedish town of Norrkšping
plans an exhibition with Hjertén's works in next spring,
2002. Moreover, there is going to be a movie about the life of Sigrid
Hjertén and her husband, the artist Isaac Grünewald.
None of the illustrations shown here at the
HUBIN website is made by Sigrid Hjertén. However, her art
can be seen at other websites.
