About the Item
Lost in Blue stands among Gérard Stricher’s most dynamic chromatic symphonies. The canvas surges with tactile energy: pools of azure, crimson, and gold sweep across the surface like geological and emotional strata. Stricher’s impasto technique—layering and sculpting paint rather than merely applying it—creates a relief that oscillates between landscape and pure abstraction. The artist’s gestures are both explosive and controlled, guided by instinct and rhythm, transforming color into matter and emotion. Here, blue operates not as background but as a living atmosphere, against which bursts of red, yellow, and pink ignite with volcanic intensity. Light seems to emanate from the paint itself, turning pigment into illumination. As in much of Stricher’s oeuvre, Lost in Blue transcends depiction: it becomes a statement of energy, vitality, and human resilience—an homage to painting as an act of existence and joy.

Gerard Stricher
Gérard Stricher, an abstract impressionist, uses oil paints as his medium to create vibrant landscapes and nature. His paintings take the viewer on a welcoming journey; soon absorbing one to an experience in his world. Drawing from a basis of COBRA, his style begins to take life as these resonances dim. Gérard's work "ignites in great impulses and curves, coming alive in a flood mastery of colors, with the assurance of the gesture generating forms according to an intense rhythm, breathing pauses appeased, a chromatic autonomy, and, little by little, emerges a subtle seduction. All this leaves footprints, consolidating then seizing the work with all the ardor of pictorial gesture."(Manfred Schneckenburger)

Landscape is the key theme of Peter Kuckei’s painting. However, he is not only concerned with its mimetic representation, but with the implementation of substantial concepts through abstracting formulations.
