J. O. Nordfeldt was described by a Minneapolis art critic in 1935 as a \"painter's painter,\" and his prolific career evinced constant experimentation with subjects, genres, and media of modernist art. The Swedish emigrant lived throughout the world--from his early training and teaching in Chicago to the dynamic art scenes of Paris and New York to popular American art colonies in Provincetown, Santa Fe, and Lambertville, New Jersey. These various locales encouraged him to engage with new styles and techniques in oil paintings, watercolors, prints, woodcuts, and etchings. His landscapes, portraits, and still lifes showed similarities with the work of Matisse and C zanne, as well as elements of cubism, and his wood carvings and prints revealed influences from Paul Gauguin and Japanese traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the 1930s Nordfeldt taught at the Minneapolis School of Art (now the Minneapolis College of Art and Design).
