Paul Granlund

Paul Granlund, whose sculptures are universally appreciated for their graceful movement, human forms and interactions between father and son, mother and baby, Phoenix (boy taken to almost flight), Constellation (human figures as though a globe) many featuring parents, lovers and saints excluding imagery, meaning, and interconnectedness.

Through his sculptures Paul sings the stories of the universe expanding, generations evolving, and unending endings and beginnings. This Groveland Gallery collection includes numerous smaller model sized sculptures created during the process of creating the larger public sized sculptures. Paul Granlund’s largest bronze works grace Westminster Church in downtown Minneapolis, The University of Minnesota Arboretum, Como Zoo and Conservatory and Gustavus Adolphus College as well as installed within Paris, Hong Kong, Sydney and more! A recounted favorite phrase of Paul’s – “There is something I’ve got to take out of the barrel” (of clay!) Groveland Gallery is honored to display and make available for purchase six of Paul Granlund’s original concept framed pencil drawings in addition to many smaller and larger floor size Paul Granlund sculptures.
