Embracing Sensation

(Friday) (Sunday)

Silvia Gertsch (b. 1963) paints children and young people while they play, sunbathe or stroll in the streets in her oil-behind-glass paintings. Xerxes Ach’s (b. 1957) abstract color field paintings are devoted to micro-phenomena created by the way light reacts with various types of surfaces. Despite their different modes of expressing themselves in art, both these Bernese artists take recourse to the same motifs: knowledge acquired via the sensations and the transitoriness of life.
