'''Gunther Gerzso''' (Mexico 1915 - Mexico 2000) [[mexican]] [[painter]] and set designer. He is best known for his ''geometric abstractions''. In painting, Gerzso moved from Surrealism to Abstract Expressionism.

::: ''When you try to look into one of my paintings, you’ll always run into a wall that keeps you from going any further. It will stop you with the brilliance of its light, but at the back there’s a black plane; it’s fear.'' [http://web.mac.com/dianethodos/iWeb/Site/Gunther%20Gerzso%20Essay.html]

[[Octavio Paz]] once said: "In all Gerzso’s pictures there is a secret. His painting indicates its existence behind the canvas. The depicted rendings, mutilations and sexual hollows have a function: they allude to what lies on the other side".

In 1939, Gerzso participated in the Annual Exhibition of the Cleveland Museum of Art.
