In his 2023 solo exhibition RIVERMAN at Fitzrovia Gallery London, Georg Meyer-Wiel shows a new body of works on paper and canvas, depicting the male figure along waterways. His latest paintings reveal man as a small part of a much larger ‘picture‘, referencing his elemental connectedness to water and the natural world.

“My travels along many rivers, from the Amazon to the Zambezi, and my observations and experiences of man’s relationship with watercourses have had a lasting influence on my life and work. I am particularly fascinated and inspired by the transformative nature of water as refractive and reflective processes create endlessly shifting abstract images from original forms.”         Georg Meyer-Wiel

Georg Meyer-Wiel‘s interdisciplinary work encompasses multiple media and is inspired by both the natural world and movement. His paintings and drawings are a direct physical and emotional response to the world that surrounds him.

Having studied Communication Design with a focus on Drawing at Folkwang University of Art in Germany, Georg graduated with a Masters degree in Fashion Design from the Royal College of Art.

He has since worked simultaneously as an artist and designer of stage and costume for contemporary dance, ballet, film and opera.

Georg’s artwork has been exhibited in the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Greece, Finland, Australia and the USA.

Major exhibitions have taken place at Hockney Gallery London, Henry Moore Gallery London, Michael Commerford Gallery Sydney and the Kunstmuseum Bonn, Germany.

Georg is represented in well over 100 private art collections and amongst his numerous clients for costume design are Rambert Dance Company, Birmingham Royal Ballet, Ballet national de l’Opéra du Rhin and the Australian Dance Theatre.

To pass on his knowledge he is pursuing his academic career and lectures at Regent’s University London, and has been conducting for many years workshops at the British Museum London, for which the Campaign for Drawing has awarded him the honorary Trailblazer Award.

Georg lives and works in London.
