AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

“Baby Meets David” shows Fredi’s unmistakable cow – colorful, playful, with a flower in its mouth – against a backdrop that immediately recalls the sunlit pool scenes of the California art scene: a flat, pastel-pink villa, two slender palm trees, the bright blue water of a swimming pool. The color fields are flat and clearly set, the pool’s horizontal line runs through the image as a calm counterpoint to the lively cow. The work fuses Fredi’s animal imagery with an iconic West Coast aesthetic – warm, cheerful, and with a wink.

Technique: Acrylic on canvas
Dimensions (H × W × D): 80 × 80 × 4 cm
Signature: Signed on the side
Year of creation: 2024
Edition: Unique (one-of-a-kind)

Condition: Very good, like new, no defects.

Shipping: The work is shipped rolled, without stretcher; it must be re-stretched onto a frame.

About the artist:
I am Fredi Gertsch, a Swiss contemporary painter with a studio and exhibition space in Burgdorf. Since 2021 I have worked in the historic town center on Kronenplatz – in a generous ground-floor space with four large shop windows, where visitors can regularly see my latest works in their original form.

My art blends Pop Art and Street Art aesthetics: bold colors, clear lines, collage-like elements, and strong storytelling. Animals – especially cows, sheep, and birds – as well as everyday objects, appear as protagonists and explore social, ecological, and human themes with humor, warmth, and optimism.

Many works are created freely from imagination, without reference images. Others begin with a digital sketch (Procreate), which I consciously transform and abstract during the painting process until an independent work arises with my personal visual language.

In the last 16 years I have sold around 1,800 works – from small formats to large-scale pieces (up to 6.5 × 2 m). My paintings are in private collections worldwide, including Zürich, Paris, New York, Singapore, Sydney, Munich, Berlin, Hamburg, and Lausanne.
