Press Release
Scientists tell you that in nature, light makes the color. But a painter will tell you that colors make light. - Gabriele Evertz, 2022
Louis Stern Fine Arts is pleased to present Gabriele Evertz: Colors Make Light, the Brooklyn-based artist’s first solo presentation with the gallery. Born and raised near Berlin, Germany, Evertz (b. 1945) identifies as a color painter, and wields her extensive historical and theoretical knowledge of the subject in pursuit of sensorially joyous outcomes. Despite a precise and disciplined methodology, which fuses the scientific order of the color wheel with the exacting geometry of angle and line, her paintings are not dispassionate in intent or effect but are instead deeply concerned with emotional response. The relationship between the painter and her canvas, and in turn between the painting and the viewer, is a private exploratory experience focused around the pleasures of being a living, sensing creature.
