artist/ STRICHER

FRANCE

Born in Sarrebourg, France, in 1948 into a family of artists, Gérard Stricher began painting in the 1970s while studying engineering. He initially pursued an international career in industry before devoting himself fully to painting. In 2004, he established his studio in an old mill in the French Vexin, marking a new stage in his artistic career. His abstract painting, characterised by vibrant colour and generous use of material, often unfolds on a large scale.From 2007 onwards, his work was increasingly exhibited in France and abroad, including Paris, Brussels, Vienna, Vilnius and New York, where Nicolas Auvray Gallery presented his solo exhibition Primary Transgressions in 2023. In 2017, his work was also exhibited at the Kallmann Museum in Germany. Shun Gallery currently supports and represents his work in France.
