Hans Larsson is an abstract action painter. His style is unpredictable and innovative with a great sense of color matching. He works large scale formats with mixed media technique and uses materials as sand, coffee, blood, wood and clay. The sizes of his paintings are usually 70x50 inches and up, and are released in series of six to ten paintings.

Hans started painting in the mid-eighties to, as he self puts it, “survive. I can’t live without it; my life would look like a car crash without it.” Hans says that his inspiration comes from objects that he encounters and collects on his journey, but there are reflections of painters as Schnabel, Rauschenberg and Barceló in his work.

Since Hans did his first one man show in 1993 he has done fourteen shows which have been greatly appreciated by press and critics in Sweden. His latest show in Sweden, Atuka received large press coverage during a show at Stockholm Central Station.
