L Lidströmer

Lidströmer

Lidströmer is a Swedish noble family, originating from the village of Liden, Medelpad, Sweden. Knighted 3 October 1800 by King Gustav IV Adolf in the cathedral of Linköping, Sweden...

(born 1948) is a Swedish artist who graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts 1967-1972. She works with paintings, sculpture and object installation, and has presented large series of exhibitions in and outside Sweden. Louise Lidströmer has a continuous connection to Paris as a former resident.

The installation ”Tabula Rasa” at Stockholm Art Fair 1994 attracted a lot of attention. Instead of “hommage” she has created the concept “femmage” (a female celebration). Series of femmages to e.g. Camille Claudel and to Tizian have been shown and have attracted attention in Sweden, but also in Paris (Centre Culturel Suédois), Mons in Belgium (Musée des Beaux Arts) and Rome (Istituto Svedese). Louise Lidströmer has signed her paintings with ”Ljubi” until 1996, L² for sculptures and "L. Lidströmer" for paintings from 1996.
