context_page_description: Enno Hallek is a Swedish artist and professor. He and his family moved to Sweden from Soviet-occupied Estonia as refugees in 1943. He was educated at the Kungliga Konsthögskolan, and had his first solo exhibition in 1963 at Konstnärshuset in Stockholm. He was a professor of arts at the Kungliga Konsthögsskolan between 1981 and 1991. Along with Åke Hallarp, he designed the Stadions tunnelbanestation, the Stadium subway station in Stockholm.
context_section_description: Hallek had his first solo exhibition in 1963, and his work has been regularly exhibited since. He has claimed to be inspired by the rainbows and sunsets he experienced while, as a child, frequently living on his family's fishing trawler. During the 1970s and 1980s, he worked on hybrids between sculptures and paintings. In 1989, Hallek returned to Estonia for the first time since becoming a refugee, and has since held several exhibitions in his birth country.
  Since 1990, he has worked on a series of paintings called "bärbara solnedgångar", or "portable sunsets". The paintings consist of two half-circles that have been sawed out of plywood, tied with strings, and had a handle attached to them. In late 2008, a series of these works were exhibited at the Moderna Museet in Stockholm.
