Galerie Jamileh Weber - Zürich - SUI

Jamileh Weber opened her gallery in Zurich in 1974. At that time a group of young artists was emerging in Zurich who were making personal, complex, narrative statements at a time when critical attention addressed itself, for the most part, to "mainstream art" (including "minimalism", "color-field", "pop", and impersonal art). It was this very exciting, local phenomenon in Zurich that prompted Jamileh Weber to become involved with living artists. By 1980, she had established a stable of artists there, such as Mario Comensoli, Manon, Rosina Kuhn or Alex Sadkowsky.
