Falk Gernegross

b. 1973, Marienberg, Germany. Falk Gernegross is a Leipzig-based artist that paints scenes from the calm before the storm, scenes of innocence and open-ended possibility. The artist establishes a rich tension between stillness and simmering forward motion, pausing each character just before they commit themselves to a more determined or narratively compelling form of action. In this arrested state, fantasy reigns supreme. (Courtesy of M+B Gallery, Los Angeles).
