grazing sheep, defeated only Schafer, von Lars Petersson in Gothenburg


The sculpture Betande får or mad sheep, which is at the Hammarkulletorget in Gothenburg, we discovered only when to cast his eyes to the multi-storey buildings over the place, because the multi-part sculpture made of stainless steel is on the broad front of the row of slightly over the place.

får Betande was established here in 1981 with the construction of the houses and shows two sheep, which among several stylized trees . Graze The grass is shown in waveform corresponding to the shape of the surrounding greenery. Anyone looking at the sheep grazing on the wall, notes immediately that the artist has adapted the work to its environment, even if one finds today looks the sheep.

Lars Petersson (1929 - 1981) has created this work by the Gothenburg district Hammarkullen shortly before his death, leaving that to some extent a legacy. The artist Lars Petersson was born in Karlshamn, and studied at the Slöjdföreningen, now the College of Design and Crafts in Gothenburg. Between 1969 and 1978, he taught architecture at the Technical Chalmers University in Gothenburg.
