Uwe Wittwer Geblendet

The Zurich artist Uwe Wittwer (*1954) has made a name for himself as the primary Swiss representative of contemporary painting. A rich selection of his works from the last 15 years, including inkjet prints and projections, impressively shows Wittwer's art's formal quality and sensuality as well as its consistency in regard to content. Central to it is the theme of memory, as well as his investigation of the picture in itself. From 1990 on, art history has served him as a source. But Wittwer never uses this "appropriation art" for ironical quotations; rather, he is intensely concerned with the themes of duration and change. This book appears on the occasion of his first comprehensive retrospective in the Solothurn Art Museum (04-08/05) and in the Ludwig Forum in Aachen (09-11/05).
