“1,000 Days” is Brett Weir’s first exhibition in Zurich after a three-year hiatus from Switzerland. His latest paintings bear vivid reference to Zürich, the city he called home for a decade and a half.
The fault line of the recent years’ impact runs deeply between his departure in 2019 and this new series. The tone of the work, however, is defiantly vibrant, transcending the gloom of the epoch – reaching for the ephemeral and the phenomenal.
Ultimately the new series offers a poetic recollection of the place that has held the artist longer than any other in his adult life. The exhibition evokes an acknowledgement of the troubles of our time while simultaneously celebrating Switzerland’s natural splendour.
In collaboration with VC7.
