Kristoffer Zetterstrand (born September 27[2], 1973 in Stockholm, Sweden) is a Swedish artist.
Kristoffer Zetterstrand studied at Royal University College of Fine Arts in Stockholm and the Facultad de Bellas Artes in Madrid.[3] Zetterstrand works in a classical painting tradition, but his works are often influenced by both arthistory, pixelated old school computer graphics and 3D worlds. His debut exhibition in 2002 consisted of paintings based on the online computer game Counter-Strike. His paintings are often based on virtual still lifes and scenography sculpted in 3D software. He is represented by Peter Bergman gallery in Stockholm. In 2008 he received the IASPIS artist in residency grant. In 2012 he received the Marianne & Sigvard Bernadotte Art Award.[4]
Some of Zetterstrand's paintings can be found in Minecraft,[3] a game created by his former brother-in-law Markus Persson.
