Gert Neuhaus Artworks for Sale

Concept

Born and living in Berlin, Germany. From 1956 to 1962 he studied commercial art and exhibition design with Helmut Lortz at the Hochschule der Künste Berlin (West). Gert Neuhaus is a surrealist painter and draftsman, specializing in oil and acrylic painting, as well as charcoal and pencil drawings. Enthused and inspired by the greats of the 1960s such as Jackson Pollock, Henri Matisse, Jean Miro and old Man Ray, whom he knew personally, he began his career as a naive painter and draftsman. Three main factors still influence his work today. 1. the devastation of World War II had a great impact on him as a child and adolescent, and is often reflected in a brokenness in his works. His paintings put the experience in a new surreal context and are always a subjective processing of this great German drama of the 20th century. 2 The prudery of post-war Germany was also a thorn in his side, which he denounced with provocative works. Therefore, early in the 60s, many gallery owners became aware of him and exhibited him in large exhibitions. His works sold like hot cakes. 3. If it offers itself, the artist leaves a chance to the beautiful coincidence. He recognized early that the Coincidence, if one is able to recognize it, also has a strong creative power that should be respected. Today Gert Neuhaus, like Markus Lüpertz, Gerhald Richter and Georg Baselitz, is one of the gray eminences of German art, who began their creative work with him in the 1960s. Today he works mainly as a painter and sculptor in Berlin.
