Description
Hyper-realistic canvas portraits in gigantic formats made Franz Gertsch (b. 1930) famous at the end of the 1970s. His woodcuts are less well-known, although they represent a central element in the Swiss artist's creative work. They are devoted above all to depictions of landscapes and nature. Drawn from his natural surroundings initially by means of photographic models, the motifs are transformed during the course of a multi-phase creative process into the fascinating immateriality of an atmospheric colour space. Behind the transparent curtain of monochrome colour, they provide a completely new approach to familiar nature motifs. The present volume shows a representative selection of his works from 1990 until 2007 and thus touches on the very essence of the artistic oeuvre of Franz Gertsch.
