A late in life, minimal and conceptual artist with more than 20 years showing in regional and nationally juried exhibitions.

Who is Bror Hultgren?

My work is primarily on paper, in black and white, an abstract exploration of line, form and surface. The process is instinctive — each mark responding to a previous mark or some feature of the medium surface. While the mark making is not planned, the works are grounded by a minimalist concept. Conceptualization is a process often arising out of an initial work, finding some essential marks, palette, or spatial organization that form the bones and boundaries of a series of pieces. I tend to work in series of a common conceptual thread.

Trained in mathematics and physics, I am drawn to the abstraction of small chamber music. The lines and marks strive to converse and dance in much the same lyrical elegance as the individual voices in a chamber piece. My work has increasingly used video to capture the kinetics of the displayed works with a musical skeleton
