Spring Moments: David Gerstein solo exhibition in Singapore

David Gerstein returns to Singapore this April with Spring Moments, opening at Bruno Gallery on April 29 and running through May 31, 2026. For collectors familiar with his work, this exhibition offers a focused look at how his visual language continues to evolve.

The gallery describes the show in simple terms: bold silhouettes, strong color, constant motion. That description holds. But what emerges in the work goes further.

The central image of the exhibition, a vertical structure built from repeated human figures, reflects Gerstein’s ongoing interest in accumulation and rhythm. Individual forms repeat, overlap, and build into something larger. The composition feels almost architectural. Structured, yet active.

This approach is rooted in his long transition from painting into layered metal construction. Each work is assembled in space. Cut planes of color are arranged with distance between them, creating depth that shifts with light and movement. Shadows are not secondary. They extend the work outward.

Recurring subjects remain present. Cyclists, pedestrians, fragments of urban life. Not as narratives, but as units within a system. The emphasis is on flow rather than story.

In Singapore, this language is already part of the city. Gerstein’s sculpture Momentum, rising 18 meters at the center of the financial district, carries the same sense of repetition and movement at a public scale. The exhibition brings that thinking back into the gallery, more contained but no less precise.

There is a level of control behind the energy in these works. Color is used freely, but not randomly. Density is balanced. Forms repeat, but with variation. The result feels intentional, even when it appears spontaneous.

Spring Moments does not present a new direction. It sharpens an existing one. For collectors, it offers a clear view into how Gerstein continues to build, layer by layer, a consistent and recognizable body of work.
