Stig Lindberg
Swedish, 1916 - 1982
Stig Lindberg (August 17, 1916 in Umeå, Sweden–April 7, 1982 in San Felice Circeo, Italy) was a Swedish ceramic designer, glass designer, textile designer, industrial designer, painter, and illustrator.
Stig Lindberg is for many people a representative of the joie-de-vivre spirit of the 1950s. He became renowned for his designs in china, enamel and textile and also achieved prominence as an illustrator and sculptor. Pottery arrived in 1947 in an era that saw Stig Lindberg working with the natural theme that was later to become his hallmark.
1962 Gold Medal at the First International Ceramics Festival in Prague
One of Sweden's most important postwar designers, Lindberg created whimsical studio ceramics and graceful tableware lines during a long career with the Gustavsberg pottery factory. Stig Lindberg studied painting at the University College of Arts, Crafts and Design. In 1937, he went to work at Gustavsberg under Wilhelm Kåge. In 1949, he was named Kåge's successor as art director. From this period until he left Gustavsberg in 1980, he designed individual ceramic items, as well as factory produced ranges and lines of dinnerware. He achieved fame for his eccentric forms and whimsical decoration. In 1982, he died due to a myocardial infarction.
His work was featured in an exhibition, Utställning: ©Stig Lindberg (Exhibition: ©Stig Lindberg), at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm from 11 May 2006 to 25 February 2007.
