Femme Au Chapeau- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Picasso Femme Au Chapeau
G. Boersma Click here to view the auction In this work, I capture a male viewer engrossed by Pablo Picasso’s 1939 masterpiece, Tête De Femme Au Chapeau. Picasso's painting functions as both an intimate psychological portrait of his muse, Dora Maar, as well as a reflection of the anxiety gripping Europe on the cusp of World War II. Art historians often note that Picasso’s Cubist distortion in 1939 was no longer just an aesthetic experiment; it was a literal mirror to a broken world. Yet, my painting underscores that while history may experience periods of profound fragmentation, our capacity to seek meaning, preserve empathy, and find enduring beauty through art remains an unbroken and hopeful force. All the best, Gerard
24.9.26Love- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Robert Indiana Men In The Cities
G. Boersma Click here to view the auction In this work, I capture a woman completely absorbed by Robert Indiana’s legendary pop art masterwork Love. His iconic image symbolizes spiritual devotion, universal human connection, and the counterculture idealism of the 1960s. As the viewer interacts with the vibrant palette and the uniquely tilted 'O', the composition turns into a celebration of an enduring shared emotion. It underscores that while eras change, our innate human desire to seek out affection, optimism, and universal unity remains the same. All the best, Gerard
21.9.26Men In The Cities- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Robert Longo Men In The Cities
G. Boersma Click here to view the auction An elderly woman stands in quiet contemplation before a piece from Robert Longo’s iconic Men in the Cities series (1979–1983). Longo's original masterpiece captures sharply dressed urbanites caught in dramatic, contorted moments of violent tension, ecstatic collapse, or frantic dance—a vivid struggle between control and collapse. While Longo’s work is famously viewed as a dark satire of ambitious 1980s yuppie culture and people pushed to their limits by the modern rat race, this painting reimagines that chaos through a lens of weathered wisdom. The juxtaposition transforms the frantic existential dread of the original art into a moment of peaceful reflection, suggesting that the struggles of youth and ambition are ultimately softened by the grace, perspective, and passage of time. All the best, Gerard
10.9.26Elegy- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Robert Motherwell Elegy
G. Boersma Consisting of over 150 paintings, Motherwell's iconic series serves as a solemn, abstract lament for the human suffering of the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). His monumental compositions are celebrated for their stark visual rhythm. These recurring elements act as powerful metaphors for the cycle of life and death, reminding us that even amidst deep tragedy, human resilience and vitality always prevail. All the best, Gerard
8.9.26Nothing Happened- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Christopher Wool Inspired Painting Nothing Happened
G. Boersma SOLD 'Nothing Happened' depicts a woman entirely absorbed in a text-based painting created in the gritty, industrial style of American artist Christopher Wool. In today's fast-paced world, the phrase 'Nothing Happened' serves as a sharp commentary on our fleeting media culture—capturing the modern cycle of outrage where a scandal gets exposed, everyone gets mad, the perpetrators quickly apologize, and then the collective consciousness immediately moves on to the next current thing as if nothing ever happened. Yet, by standing in quiet contemplation, the viewer in the painting offers a hopeful alternative; her stillness reminds us of our own capacity to pause, deeply reflect, and find meaningful connection amidst the endless noise of the modern world. All the best, Gerard
5.9.26Drone- Painting Of A Drone Flying Through A Blue Sky Drone
G. Boersma SOLD In this painting you see a lone drone cutting through an endless, brilliant blue sky. On the surface, the blue sky feels serene and peaceful—a classic celebration of nature's untouched beauty. Yet, the sharp, mechanical silhouette of the drone introduces a tense, modern reality into the quiet atmosphere. It instantly transforms a simple sky into a symbol of constant surveillance and technological reach. Much like my series of CCTV camera paintings, this artwork serves as a subtle metaphor for our contemporary world, balancing the weight of our tech-driven lives against our desire for freedom and privacy. All the best, Gerard
29.8.26Met Het Hoofd In De Wolken- Painting Of A Woman Enjoying A Painting By Raoul De Keyser Met Het Hoofd In De Wolken
G. Boersma SOLD 'Met Het Hoofd In De Wolken' (With Head in the Clouds) depicts a woman entirely absorbed in a painting by the Belgian modernist Raoul de Keyser. De Keyser’s work is celebrated for its poetic, understated abstraction—made up of simple shapes, tempered colors, and an intentional blurring of the line between a literal sky and pure geometric abstraction. The woman seems to love it, hence the title 'Met Het Hoofd In De Wolken'. Galerie Nathan Vilar in Deinze, Belgium (De Keyser’s historic hometown) currently has original works by Raoul de Keyser available for acquisition, as well as a selection of my own original paintings. All the best, Gerard
28.8.26Untitled- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Willem De Kooning Untitled
G. Boersma SOLD This painting shows a man engaging with a powerful, late masterwork by Willem de Kooning.Moving away from the raw, aggressive impasto of his earlier career, De Kooning’s late 1980s style is celebrated for its ethereal elegance, characterized by fluid, harmonious, curvy ribbons of color that sweep across the canvas.Transfixed by this graceful composition, the viewer takes it all in, seamlessly becoming part of the painting. All the best, Gerard
27.8.26Detonating Monkey- Painting Of A Man Enjoying A Painting By Banksy Detonating Monkey
G. Boersma SOLD Measuring 30 x 30 cm, this work depicts a man entirely immersed in Monkey Detonator (often referred to as Detonating Monkey), a creation by the anonymous street artist-provocateur Banksy. Known for his sharp socio-political undercurrents and irreverent wit, Banksy’s iconic artwork depicts a cheerful chimpanzee mid-leap, hands grasped around a TNT plunger moments away from triggering an explosion. The viewer doesn't back down, but stands fixed before the canvas, presenting a striking contrast between the ticking tension of the explosive image and the serene, frozen stillness of human contemplation. All the best, Gerard
