{not] following art history I

by Geert Lemmers · Druten, NL

As most of the time, this artwork is a combination of painting, photography and digital post processing. Fine Art print on Fujifilm DPII glossy or luster and then pasted on 2mm polystyrene; Ready to frame. Optionally with or without white space around. Gathering inspiration from personal philosophical research, Lemmers seeks to integrate the absurdity of the irrational world with a synthesis of different cultures. Creating artwork is, for him, a process of constructing imagery that metaphorically represents his thoughts and ideas in a strong and arresting manner. Fantasy, drama, psychology, and mysticism are central to his imagery. Describing that which he shows us, the artist writes that, “his works show us more often this unknown, weird world in theatrical situations we never see in our ‘real’ life. [They] are sort of a visual analysis of his thoughts about another and (maybe) better world.” In mei 2017 won Geert de ArtPrize Fransisco Goya tijdens de kunstbiënnale Barcelona en in december 2017 werd hij verkozen tot “ ART MASTER " VAN ACCADEMIA ITALIA IN ARTE NEL MONDO ASSOCAZIONE CULTURALE, in Lecce It.
