Painted! Presents Three Uncompromising Painters Whose Works Now Enhance The Daros Collections. In Recent Decades, Beate Günther, Guillermo Kuitca, And Richard Allen Morris Have Continuously Sounded The Boundaries Of Painting With Completely Different Artistic Strategies.
The Berlin-Based Artist Beate Günther (*1957) Works With Pigments, Producing Paintings That Feature Extraordinary, Richly Nuanced Surfaces That Elude All Too Hasty Definitions In Terms Of Content. The Contribution To The 2007 Venice Biennale By Argentinean Painter Guillermo Kuitca (*1961) Seems Deeply Disturbing: In The Desenlace I–Iv Series, He Deals Intensely With The Stylistic Elements Of Cubism And The Artist Lucio Fontana. Finally, Selected Works Tie In The Oeuvre Of The American Richard Allen Morris (*1933), Who For Five Decades Has Reflected On The (Art) World Surrounding Him With An Acute Power Of Observation And A Pronounced Sense Of Irony.



Exhibition Schedule: Daros Exhibitions, Zurich, October 18, 2008–February 15, 2009
