Lot description

Jonas Gerard (1941-2020) Moroccan/American, Acrylic on Canvas. Signed lower right. Acrylic on canvas abstract cityscape depicting a dense group of houses with stairs weaving between them. Unframed. Size: 12 x 11 in. Jonas Gerard (1941-2020) was a Moroccan-born American painter and sculptor celebrated for his bold, colorful abstract works emphasizing spontaneity and emotional energy. After immigrating to the U.S., he established himself in New York before settling in Asheville, North Carolina, where his studio became a cultural landmark. Gerard often worked in a performative style, painting to music and creating large-scale canvases filled with vivid hues and gestural brushstrokes. His art and philosophy built a devoted following around his belief in the transformative and healing power of the creative process.
