Bio:
Hans Einar Polmar (1927–2013) was a Swedish painter, graphic artist and sculptor from Vreta Kloster in Östergötland. He studied at institutions including Konstfack and Gerlesborgsskolan and worked across painting, printmaking and sculpture throughout his career. Polmar also produced several works of public art, including painted and relief-carved wooden compositions. He was active within the Swedish art community around Södertälje and is documented as a member of Södertälje Konstnärskrets. His artistic output consequently ranged from expressive painting and graphic work to larger public commissions.
