Bengt Lindström began his artistic training at the Stockholm Academy (1944-1945) and at Isaac Grünewald's school of painting. He later worked with Aksel Jorgensen, before spending some time in Chicago and moving to Paris. There he worked in the studios of Fernand Léger and André Lhote. In 1949 he began to paint in a less figurative and increasingly colorful style. His first solo exhibition took place in Sweden in 1954, at the Gummesson Art Fair. From the 1950s onwards, he took part in several group exhibitions and salons in Paris. Recognized from the 1950s onwards, Lindström held solo exhibitions in cities such as Paris, London, Brussels, Cincinnati and Tokyo. Most of his work is currently held at the Krimaro Foundation, as well as at the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, the Carnegie Institute, the Pompidou Center in Paris and the Tate Gallery in London, among many others.
