BIOGRAPHY 
His first one man show of paintings in the expressionistic style was held in Stockholm in 1946.

During 1947 he began experimenting with geometric abstract forms and through Auguste Herbin, his geometric paintings were first shown at the Salon des Realities Nouvelles in Paris. Subsequent one-man shows held in Paris include: 1951 Galerie Breteau, 1952 Galerie Colette Allendy, 1953 Galerie Arnaud. These exhibitions consisted of paintings in which he exprimented with optical illusions and oscillation effects from the surface of rhombi and rhomboids. Olson also executed mural compositions, including mosaics and light modulated reliefs. Always interested in space and light, he began to explore optic color phenomena and the refraction of the light in molecular structures. Olson carried out this idea in art objects, ”optochromatics”, consisting of two or three rectangular glass plates in which the polarization of the light and bi-refracture interference had been coordinated. This work was exhibited for the first time in Oslo, Norway in 1958. In 1961, A. B. Svensk Filmindustri, in collabration with Olson, made a documentary color film “levande farg” about optical art. The film, which presents compound and mobile glass panel compositions, was awarded a prize by the Swedish Government and an award at a film festival in Bolzano. In 1966, Olson in collaboration with composer Jan W. Morthenson and photographer Rune Hassner, produced a film, “Interfeence1” with optochromatic composition and electronic music which was awarded a prize by the Swedish Government.
