From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record
Born and educated in Sweden, Sandzén emigrated to the United States at the age of 23. He settled in Lindsborg, Kansas, where he held a lifelong professorship at Bethany College. Sandzén's technique is marked by a rich, inventive, high-key colorism executed in a pointillist style. His work is inspired by the landscape of the western United States, from summers spent in Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico. Americas
