Gerard Mortier Art for Sale at Auction

b. 1951 -

Gerard Mortier (French, b. 1951). Born in 1951 in Boulogne sur Mer, France, Gerard Mortier has been dubbed the "Ambassador of the Opal Coast" and most of his works depict lands on the English Channel - palpably capturing the power of the wind and sea that characterize this region of France. In addition, Mortier depicts various locales when traveling. When not traveling, Gerard also finds subjects to paint in the tranquil garden of his rustic country home in the northern part of his country. This urban scene is more unusual in his oeuvre.
