Art Brokerage specializes in the original paintings of Bill Gersh. 1943-1994 -Bill Gersh- Artist movement-surrealism, cubism, abstract expressionism. Gersh artworks portray not so much storylines as psychological states the late artist Bill Gersh always struck me as the example par excellence of the sort of urban-New Mexico-cowboy/outcast/modernist artist for which this neighborhood, at one time, was notorious. Gersh started out with the most offensive colors he could dream of, put them together in big, offensive combinations and then went on from there at an exhibition opening, his behavior might be even worse. Gersh arrived among the first wave of hippie immigrants to northern New Mexico in 1968, and for the next quarter-century, until his death from liver cancer in 1994, he toughed out day-to-day life, prickly as a cactus and resourceful as a magpie, in the middle of nowhere above San Cristobal. Gersh would have been 66 this year, and while he's not in many books on modern art in New Mexico yet, when the proper book is written, he will be.Gersh's style is reminiscent of Warhol with the southwest colors. Bill Gersh was a friend of Art Brokerage founder Donna Rose who gave him a fabulous show at her Gallery in Sun Valley Idaho in 1990. We will issue certificates of authenticity for his paintings.
