Thorvald Hellesen (1888-1937) was a Norwegian avant-garde artist
who lived and worked in Paris in the 1910s and 1920s. He and his
wife, the French artist Helene Perdriat, were part of a circle of
artists that included Pablo Picasso, Fernand Leger, Constantin
Brancusi, Piet Mondrian, Theo van Doesburg, and many others. In his
short yet intense life, Thorvald Hellesen created an impressive
unique oeuvre, oriented on Modernism, consisting of oil paintings,
watercolours, gouaches, drawings, design projects, and textiles.
Nevertheless, even in Norway he is only known to a few. With this
publication the authors Dag Blakkisrud, Matthew Drutt, and Hilde
Morch have created a written portrait of Hellesen. In addition to
classifying him within the history of art, they try to find
explanations as to why his artistic practice is only now being
considered important and interesting for Norwegian and
international art history.
