As one of the central figures in the avant-garde group The Imaginists, formed in 1945, CO Hultén holds a significant place in Swedish art history. In 1948, he also joined the CoBrA group, which included, among others, Asger Jorn. CO Hultén was also the driving force behind two other influential projects: Image Publishing, which he founded in 1947, and the magazine Salamander, which was published in three issues between 1955 and 1956. Salamander contained texts, poems, and visual material by figures such as Tomas Tranströmer, Marcel Duchamp, Roberto Matta, and André Breton, as well as lithographic originals showcasing the initiators' unique international network. Concurrently with Salamander, Hultén opened Galerie Colibri in Malmö in January 1955 – likely the city's first artist-run exhibition space.
Bukowskis is proud to once again be entrusted with selling selected works from CO Hultén's estate, dating from 1930 to 1950. These works represent a unique opportunity to acquire art from one of Sweden's most influential post-war artists. Many of these pieces have never been exhibited before.
