In the artwork by Banksy the monkey functions as a symbol for humans. The monkey provides a wider insight into the human condition and a very firm tongue-in-cheek satirization of society and wider humanity.

All the best, Gerard

SOLD

I consider the CCTV surveillance camera's as a symbol of our times. To me they represent a more and more totalitarian society and the declining freedom and privacy.

Marilyn- Man Enjoying Portrait Of Marilyn Monroe By Andy Warhol

Marilyn
painting of a man enjoying a portrait of Marilyn Monroe by Andy Warhol

G. Boersma
acrylic on masonite
±8" x 8" or 20 x 20 cm
2024

SOLD

Marilyn Monroe passed away in 1962 and the typical Warhol theme of fame, beauty and death reached a first climax in his oeuvre by painting her portrait posthumously.

The artist painted multiple variations of Marilyn, Warhol not only demonstrating his exceptional sense of colour, but also consciously integrated photography, the ultimate means of mass communication.

Lays Naturel- Still Life Painting Of Bags Of Potato Chips

Lays Naturel
still life painting of bags of potato chips in supermarket

G. Boersma
acrylic on masonite
±22 2/3" x 21 1/2" or 57,5 x 54,5 cm
2024

SOLD

With my still life paintings I always like to pick subjects that are modern and not widely considered to be subjects at all.

A couple of bags of Lays potato chips in a supermarket rack is just perfect as I feel these works say a lot about todays' society and the way we live.

I also love the colors and how the light dances around the composition.

All the best, Gerard

Slow Rise- Woman Enjoying Painting By Kenneth Noland

Slow Rise
painting of a woman enjoying a painting by Kenneth Noland

G. Boersma
acrylic on masonite
±27 2/3" x 12" or 70 x 31 cm
2024

SOLD

Noland was part of a group of painters that described their paintings as Color Field work, huge paintings of large fields of color. Noland's interest in pure color led him to create controlled, geometric abstract paintings, using stripes, chevrons, and target shapes of colors.

If you stand close to Noland's work like my figure does, the colors seem to extend beyond your peripheral vision, like a lake or an ocean. These mega-size rectangles require letting your mind and eye leap right into the expanse of red, blue or green. Then you can almost feel the sensation of the colors themselves.

All the best, Gerard

SOLD

Tamara de Lempicka (1898-1980) was nicknamed ‘the baroness with a paintbrush’. She is renowned for an Art Deco style which oozed cool chic and elegant sensuality. Portraiture was her genre, featuring stylised subjects bedecked in seductive textures and bathed in flattering light.
