artist biography
Yngve Sigurd Ferdinand Nilsson was born 11 February, 1912 in Stoby, Kristianstad. He was a Swedish painter and writer.

He studied briefly at  Otte Skölds målarskola (painting school) in Stockholm in 1945 and later at Erik Clemmesen’s painting school in Copenhagen in 1950, otherwise pursuing his training largely through self-study. From 1947 onwards he undertook repeated study trips to Germany, France, Italy and the Netherlands.

Nilsson held solo exhibitions in Kristianstad in 1941, 1949 and 1960, and during the 1950s he lived mainly in West Germany, for the longest period in Bad Godesberg. There he participated in a number of group shows and presented a solo exhibition in 1954. He is best known for landscapes in oil and pastel, as well as large-scale works in glass mosaic. Notable commissions in Sweden include the oil painting Vägen (1949)  and a wall painting (1955) for the Ebenezer Church in Hässleholm. In Germany, his works include mosaics for Die Sparkasse in Düren (1958) and for the secondary school in Bad Honnef (1959), as well as a monumental oil painting for the Bremer Baumwollbörse in Bremen (1958).

Alongside his visual art, Nilsson also published two collections of poetry: Vrakspillror (1936) and Aska och glöd (1949). He was a member of the Bonner Künstlergruppe.

He passed away in 1993 at the age of 81.
