Gunther Gerzso.

Gunther Gerzso, Southern Queen, 1963. Oil paint on Masonite.

A recent visit to the Denver Art Museum to see the Wyeth (father and son) show led me to an exhibit I found equally compelling.

Sr Gerzso has several distinctive bodies of work. Some I find worth spending time with. Others, not so much.

The palette and the geometry will find good company in many other images in this online journal. But what really grabbed me was the textured layering of colors and the suggestions of antiquity. Compare it to Charley Hunter's work.
