the creative journey of
Fredi Gertsch
For over 15 years, the artist has dedicated himself to painting with passion and dedication. Every day, he takes up his brush to create colorful, symbolic works that go far beyond mere visual pleasure. His art aims to touch, inspire, and encourage—he celebrates life and invites us to embrace new perspectives.
Fredi Gertsch's "cool pictures" have already traveled far and wide—from Zurich to Singapore, New York, Munich, Sydney, Helsinki, and Zhu Hai. This international response confirms that his art speaks a universal language: that of joy, love, courage, and strength.
He finds inspiration in songs, films, legends, social issues, and the colorful chaos of everyday life. For him, every canvas is a new adventure, where impressions and thoughts merge into stories that convey lightness and confidence.
His works are far more than decorative elements—they aim to move, inspire thought, and leave a lasting impression. Those who engage with them will discover a world full of color, imagination, and joie de vivre.
Large format, large collaboration
6.5 x 2 meters – my largest canvas so far
Together with the experienced canvas builder Ueli Langenegger, I constructed my largest canvas to date, measuring an impressive 6.5 x 2 meters – a commissioned work that also presented a special technical challenge. Ueli Langenegger, known for creating monumental canvases for the world-renowned artist Franz Gertsch, brings decades of expertise in large-format production to the table. This collaboration was an inspiring moment for me and an important milestone on my artistic path.
