 The mid-1920s and a couple of decades following were both characterized by surrealism, the Halmstad Group, and of expressionism, which includes Gothenburg Schools realists, Sven Erixson and Bror Hjorth and a rigorous formalist, abstract minimalism of artists such as Olle Bærtling.Among the sculptors of the period are Carl Eldh and Carl Milles.Both have had great influence and the latter is perhaps the most famous Swedish sculptor of all time.
