About Edward B. Gordon
Scenes of a big city: a young woman crossing the rain-soaked street, an umbrella glowing in the sunlight - situations that were reality a moment ago but already faded. Edward B. Gordon (born in 1966) is able to capture these exact moments in pictures. He gives them back their liveliness in rough brushstrokes and rich colours.
In 2006, he starts to paint a 15 x 15 cm picture every day and posts it on the internet. Out of nowhere, he builds up an international collector base. With this daily routine and discipline, he develops his painting. "Since I started painting a picture every day, I have become more aware of many things, for example, the weather and the seasons, especially their quiet but sometimes dramatic changes, the changes in light and mood... My perception has definitely changed. In this process, I have learned to see, instead of just looking."
Gordon also creates numerous larger paintings, on which he works for months or sometimes even years. Sometimes they depict places to linger or tell stories of fleeting moments. His painterly skill unfolds the best on large canvases, where he transforms everyday scenes into overwhelming poetry.

Depiction of typical scenes from daily life in painting, with distinctions between rural, bourgeois, and courtly genres.
The genre reached its peak and immense popularity in Dutch paintings of the 17th century. In the 18th century, especially in France, the courtly and gallant painting became prominent, while in Germany, a more bourgeois character developed.
A one-of-a-kind or unique piece is a work of art personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolour, drawing, lost-wax sculpture etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there are also the so-called "serial unique pieces". They present a series of works with the same colour, motif and technique, manually prepared by the same artist. The serial unique pieces are rooted in "serial art", a genre of modern art that aims to create an aesthetic effect through series, repetitions, and variations of the same objects or themes or a system of constant and variable elements or principles.
The historical starting point is considered to be Claude Monet's "Les Meules" (1890/1891), where, for the first time, a series was created that went beyond a mere group of works. The other artists, who addressed to the serial art, include Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian and above all Gerhard Richter.
