About the Item
'Together', 2017 by Contemporary Norwegian artist, Marit Geraldine Bostad. Acrylic on canvas, 61 x 41.5 inches. This brightly neon colored abstract painting features a central, curved linear gesture, interpreting the coming together of two people. Bostad incorporates large painterly strokes in bold colors of red, neon pink, yellow, orange, brown, and grey. The background is painted in beige and white with hints of light blue markings throughout the canvas.
Bostad describes her paintings as 'intuitive, rich in color, and passionate---it has a nerve.' They have largely emotional and thoughtful processes behind them. Describing her practice as a 'kind of therapy and a way for her mind to switch off,' Marit Bostad’s feelings about her work are made clear by the lasting affect her paintings have on her audience.
Bostad states 'When I paint I go into another place. Not by trying, but just by being. Interaction with my tools, colors, and the white canvas. And when I am in that state – and eventually find a connection to the artwork, I have learned by time, that someone else also connects to it as well. My job is to search for, to know when I am there. And it demands that I be true to myself, open minded and searching for interesting contrasts.'
Marit Geraldine Bostad works and lives in Horten in Vestfold County, Norway. Her studio is at an old naval base, where she finds most of her work inspiration in the middle of great nature and historical buildings. Originally an Art Director, Bostad earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Art Direction in 1997 and spent 10 years on visual projects within film, illustration and concept building in Oslo.
In 2010 Bostad left her career in Art Direction to pursue her painting full time, and in 2015 she opened her own gallery/studio called Geraldine. The artist has exhibited her work since 2011 in London, Oslo, and New York, and has received substantial recognition from curators as well as galleries and collectors throughout Europe.

Marit Geraldine Bostad
Marit Geraldine Bostad is an abstract colorist. She earned her bachelor’s degree in art direction in Oslo in 1997. She works and lives in Horten in Vestfold County, Norway, and her studio is at an old naval base, where she finds most of her work inspiration — in the middle of great nature and historical buildings.
Bostad's paintings carry an emotionally charged impetus. Describing her practice as a kind of therapy and a way to switch off her mind, her feelings about her work are highlighted by their lasting impression on the viewer. Her abstract paintings are influenced by memories and people, whose essence she intuitively attempts to preserve on the canvas. Richly colored and textured, incorporating layer upon layer of acrylic paint, the canvases are imbued with a fresh, youthful approach, positivity and invigorating color palette.
