Mold blown scandinavian modern red devil triangular glass vase by christer sjögren for lindshammar 1960s. He developed the special technique of blowing up the piece of glass in a cavity made of brick. The captivating red, organically textured surface beautifully captures the light. Positioned in front of the vase is an endearing little devil reminiscent of picasso's fauns. Dimensions height: 23 cm width (frontside): 7,2 cm width (backsides): 7,5 cm about christer sjögren georg christer natanael sjögren, born june 25, 1926 in stockholm, died october 13, 2008, was a swedish glass artist, sculptor, he was the son of homeopath eibel sjögren and martha kilander and from 1953 married to ceramicist eva birgitta ruth lindbeck. After passing the journeyman's exam in the woodcarving profession in 1947, he studied sculpture at the academy of art and design 1948–1952 and for stig blomberg at the royal academy of arts' sculpture department in stockholm 1953–1958. After his studies, he continued to work in wood, forging and concrete and was awarded prizes at several sculpture prize competitions, including by the royal coin cabinet for a proposal for modern medals. Together with his wife eva sjögren, he had his workshop at lundagatan in stockholm. Eventually he specialized in glass. Here he was "discovered" by the manager of lindshammar's glass factory, erik hovhammar, and got a job at the mill in 1963. Between 1965 and 2003, he was the artistic director of the mill. Among other things, he created utility glass, decanters, bottles, candlesticks, ashtrays, vases and architectural glass for the mill's arkitekturglas atelier. He developed the special technique of blowing up the piece of glass in a cavity made of brick. When the apollo 11 astronauts came home from the first trip to the moon, they each received a christer sjögren sculpture, donated by lindshammar, and richard nixon received the first one. Christer sjögren liked to work with sacred glass, among them a 16 kilo crystal altar cross from 1974 that can be found in several of sweden's small churches. His art was noticed by a wider audience after a solo exhibition in stockholm in 1959 where he showed sculptures and concrete reliefs. He then exhibited separately at, among others, konsthantverkarna in stockholm in 1959, lilla galleriet in 1962, form in malmö in 1965 and in höganäs in 1966. Together with berndt petterson and birger forsberg, he exhibited at "de ungas" salon in stockholm in 1959 and he exhibited several times together with his wife, among others, artisans in stockholm. He participated in the exhibition of modern medal art at the royal coin cabinet in 1955 and in the international medal exhibition in paris in 1959 and 1961 as well as in the international exhibitions of contemporary medal art in vienna and rome. He participated in sweden's general art association's spring salons in stockholm and liljevalch's stockholm salons as well as the exhibition aspect at liljevalch's art gallery. He was awarded the helge ax:son johnson foundation scholarship in 1955 and the ester lindahl scholarship in 1961–1962.
