August Strindberg

August Strindberg

Autor

(Estocolmo, 1849-1912). Escritor y dramaturgo sueco cuyas obras han sido de gran influencia para el teatro moderno. Instaurador del Naturalismo en Suecia, se le considera pionero de la reforma expresionista e investigador de lo que algunas décadas después se conocería como Surrealismo, rasgo que se aprecia especialmente en sus últimas obras.

Fue un gran renovador, precursor del teatro de la crueldad y del absurdo. Sufrió frecuentes crisis personales; odiaba y amaba a la vez la familia burguesa, cuya estructura y desintegración desveló con extraordinaria precisión. 

Buscó otras formas de expresión en la pintura y la fotografía.
