Tribute to Gerhard Fröbel

"The Whisper of Colors"

From September 8th to 13th.

Opening reception September 10th from 5pm to 8pm.

This exhibition celebrates the memory and transatlantic work of Gerhard Fröbel,

whose life was a constant dialogue with 20th century painters.

Trained in Amsterdam and Munich by eminent professors, his significant encounters with artists encouraged him in his aesthetic research.

A multi-talented artist, he has exhibited at the Haus der Kunst Museum in Munich.

He created stained glass windows in Riyadh and published his EXLEX LEXEX collage books.

He moved to Montreal in 1998.

He abandoned the large-format oil paintings of his youth for watercolor. Drawing upon

Drawing on his mastery of space and color, he then took up the challenge of transforming this fluid technique onto formats of more than one meter.

Presented in Germany at the Voswinckelshof Museum in 2014, his work now finds a vibrant echo at the Studio M gallery in Montreal.

Nine years after his death, "The Murmur of Colors" invites us to rediscover

the visual poetry of a unique creator who has pushed the boundaries of his art, finding a vibrant echo between Europe and Quebec.
