Stefan Gevers

Picture
Stefan Gevers work with watercolour typifies the creative and design style of his original homeland in The Netherlands with his approach to minimalism and subtraction. He takes a contemporary approach to working with watercolour on paper, with all limited editions produced locally using highest quality production methods. All prints are signed, stamped & number by the artist.
Living permanently in Melbourne since 1999, his work is inspired by many road trips through country Australia. His interest in the natural environment & delicate shifting patterns in nature are often a starting point for paintings in acrylic & watercolour. The form and textures of the landscape are ultimately reduced to a few but exact colour planes.
Stefan’s work has been collected by the Victorian & Queensland State Libraries, Artbank Australia, the NAB collection, and numerous private collections throughout Australia and Europe. He has been awarded the Yerring Station Sculpture prize & has exhibited widely as a solo artist and as part of collaborative exhibitions.

About Stefan Gevers- Extract from Panaromas essay by Robert Hollingworth

“Artistic merit can be determined by asking at least two simple questions: does the work have something to say, and does it say it well? Students of art grapple with the former – having something to say – their limited life experience doesn’t help. Initiates also grapple with the latter – saying something well. That means finding a suitable medium – oil, acrylic, watercolour, bronze, felt – and learning how to engage with it.

Stefan Gevers has long passed this stage. He knows what he wants to say and has found his medium, predominantly watercolour, which he handles as though the stuff is in his bloodstream. He is aware that it’s not about mastering the medium. Instead, he recognises clearly what watercolour wants to do all by itself and has learned to collaborate with it, to work in tandem – artist and medium – so that the outcome rewards both. Balance and unity are not just properties of composition but of process as well. So, good painting is really a love affair.

A glance at Stefan Gevers’ work is enough to appreciate this pleasing relationship. Nothing is forced, nothing feigned, there’s no charade. He sees, he feels, he translates directly, no preliminary studies, no pre-drawing or marking out. Composing goes on in the artist’s head just as it might for a composer of music. This kind of forthrightness in contemporary art is rarer than some may think.
Many artists feel there is some imperative to hunt down novelty, and believe art is about trends and ideas when perhaps it’s much more about insight. Perception and empathy are this artist’s stock in trade.”

Robert Hollingworth April 2018
Robert is an Australian award-winning artist & novelist. He currently owns & curates The Wall Projects in Ulladulla NSW, while exhibiting nationally.
