directly behind the Högsbo Kyrka you discover something hidden behind trees and bushes a work that has called the artist Brädseglare, ie wind surfers. It may be surprising at this point to find a surfer, because there is no water nearby, but on the other hand, the teacher could never even windsurfing.
The surfer or Brädseglare stands elegantly in copper on his board, even when so many critics have already said that the sailors could sail for his stance never fast. The first model of Brädseglare was in miniature, is produced by the artist for his son. In 1986 he created but then the wind surfers in its present form, then for an exhibition in the Trädgårdsföreningen placed, before being subsequently got its present place.
Lengstrand Bertil was born in 1928 and attended the Hovedskous Målarskolan (now College of Design and Crafts) and the School of Art Valand in Gothenburg. Bertil Lengstrand lives on the southern island archipelago Brännö and continues to create works of art. The Brädseglare he created on behalf of Familjebostäder.
