Characteristic work of artist Harrie Gerritz, born in 1940 in Wychen, studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Amsterdam from 1957 to 1964.
Gerritz's oeuvre, which comprises paintings, prints, and installations, lies in the tension between figurative and abstract art. The artist draws inspiration primarily from nature and the Dutch landscape. Gerritz grew up in the region of Maas and Waal, and this homeland continues to fascinate and inspire him to this day. "The landscape can be something concrete, geographically speaking, but it primarily serves as a source of inspiration for my intuition," says the artist. A recurring theme in Gerritz's work is the river landscape, his favorite view: clouds over tree formations, soaring church towers, farm fences, riverbanks, and parceled meadows form the main motifs in his paintings.
Over the years, Gerritz's landscapes have become more abstract; they increasingly resemble distant vistas in his mind. He uses stylized imagery and emphasizes his experience of the landscapes. There is no clear recognizability, only an emotional atmosphere. Gerritz's creations are characterized by the enthusiastic use of bright, expressive colors.
