Biography edit

Thornander was born in Stockholm in 1958 to a Swedish father and a French mother. He attended the Franska Skolan, founded for French students in Stockholm in 1862. At the age of 15, he moved to France and attended the Lycée Condorcet. He was interviewed in front of the school in 1973 on the lowering of the voting age to 18.[2]

Training edit

Thornander decided early on to become an experimental artist. In 1994, he wrote his "Continuum manifesto" for the Swedish magazine 90Tal [sv], in which he theorized artistic contribution to the contemporary world.[3] His approach inspired artist Magnus Bärtås [sv] to write Wem är Nils Thornander?.[4] Art critic Lars O. Ericsson [sv] described him as a "geographer of chaos". His works were "a committed approach to achieve harmony", according to Isabelle Kevorkian.[5]

Plastic creations edit

Thornander started out painting oil on canvas, but in the late 1980s began to prefer a technique involving immersive hypercubes. He preferred the use of electric light from light boxes as opposed to natural lighting. In the mid-1990s, he became interested in digital art and created a perspective on "Just From Cynthia" at the invitation of Alberto Sorbelli [fr], presented at the Centre Pompidou. He worked with Mildred Simantov on "Refectory", presented at the Musée Carnavalet during the Nuit Blanche in 2010,[6] as well as the book-album "L’Age adulte, le Tuning Book", presented at the Palais de Tokyo.[7]

Musical and sound creations edit

In 1998 Silke Fischer [de] collaborated with Thornander to created music for the documentary "Putzen in Paris/Paris poussière". He also led sound design for Magnus Bärtås's "Claims of Victory", presented in Seoul in 2015. He then directed music for the feature film Reception (Save The Date), directed by Gilles Verdiani [fr], in 2018.[8] In 2019, he created the musical work "Absolute Value", created at IRCAM.[9]

Death edit

Nils Thornander died in Paris on 10 June 2022 at the age of 64.[10]
