Fredi Gertsch - Just Us Two – Side by Side - XL

“Just Us Two – Side by Side” shows two cows, shoulder to shoulder, on glowing coral red. Their bodies are flat and clearly outlined, yet inside they are full of painterly depth: blue and gray tones, gestural brushstrokes, textured fragments and golden-yellow accents overlay to create a richly structured inner life. One cow raises a paw in greeting, the other stands quietly beside her — a silent, warm scene full of familiarity. In the bottom right a small flower as the last smile. Two that need each other. That’s all it takes.

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 city center on Kronenplatz — in a generous ground-floor space with four large windows where visitors can regularly see my latest works in their original form.

My art combines 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 a standalone work emerges with my personal visual language.
