It is a schampar good weekend is in store for Winti. Not only that, it is time for the young art exhibition (see left), but it will also start two pretty, small exhibitions in the art Museum: a work by Yves netzhammer, which was donated to the Museum recently, will be presented presented (see Box), on the other hand, this year’s Manor-art-award-winner.
The Manor price, which is explained here briefly, is a since the 80s in different cities of U-40 artist prize awarded, in addition to a 15 000-Fr.-Cheque – in the Form of an exhibition, “paid”, and it might have won him already Pipilotti Rist (1994, St. Gallen), Nic Hess (2002, Zürich; he has a adorable Look in the gallery Ziegler) and Yves netzhammer (1998, Schaffhausen, just: see Box).
A tire in the room: work from Brigham Baker.
in any case: this Time, a certain Brigham Baker comes in the wreaths. And if you have never heard that name, then maybe it’s because this is his first solo exhibition in a Museum; but the man is only 30. The choice of Zurich, originally from the equally manageable as the peaceful California town of Nipomo, has a very special gift, namely: look carefully.
Long and patiently, and to make the Observed subsequently, art. An example: In the broken Tires, the remain along a road lie an insect; and the Mini-universe, the Viechlein create, photographed Baker then. Or, see the photo at the top: What looks like a round painting, are, in truth, stretched, worn-out Sun blinds which have been processed by Wind and weather over the years, visually appealing””. In Winterthur now Baker presents – no. Only so much: this Time, he observed Apples. And the way the time is added to them. A beautifully meditative-fruity story.
