Harrison is known for his clear block “encapsulations” of found African artifacts that scrutinize and bring a lens to the ineradicable effects of racism and colonialization. With rigorous technical methods, Harrison enshrines the found objects, such as African wooden sculptures and bone, in acrylic resin, plexiglass, and industrial modeling clay that he then sculpts using computer numerical control (CNC) machines. Harrison has also used these manufacturing techniques to encase recent artifacts of the American working class, speaking to labor and inequality, the politics of mass production, and anthropology.
Matthew Angelo Harrison was born in 1989 in Detroit, MI, US, where he lives and works. Harrison’s solo exhibition Robota was presented at MIT List Visual Arts Center, Cambridge, MA, US (2022). Furthermore, he has been the subject of solo exhibitions at and SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah, GA, US (2022); Kunsthalle Basel, Basel, CH (2021); Broad Art Museum, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI, US (2018); Atlanta Contemporary, Atlanta, GA, US (2017); and Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, Detroit, MI, US (2016).

SUNSHINE ONUS

The Cathedral of Zurich is one of the three main churches in Zurich, Switzerland, and is designed to incorporate a variety of architectural styles such as Romanesque, post-Gothic and neo-Gothic. Its most distinctive feature is the towering twin towers, which makes it also known as the &quot;Cathedral of Zurich Twin Towers&quot;. The interior of the church is simple and reflects the style of the 16th century Reformation. The church has stained glass windows created by Swiss modern art master Giacometti, whose artistic masterpieces are painted glass. In addition, the church&#39;s underground church and the seat of the Saints are older parts of the existing history, dating back to the late 11th century and early 12th century, and still can see traces of the frescoes on the decoration.

横竖是二温小迪

On the first day of landing in Zurich, it happened to rain, so I went to visit the National Museum next to the train station. You can get free tickets with Swiss pass, and the staff also gave you a coin to send a package. The storage and toilet are on the basement floor, and small suitcases should be able to be stored.

The exhibits on the first floor of the Swiss Museum can be guided in Chinese, but there is no Chinese guide on the second floor. The exhibits are not very interesting to me, but the museum is not bad, and there are not many people, which is suitable for checking in and taking pictures. In addition, the small gadgets in the gift shop are also very cute, but the prices are not beautiful.

Bahnhofstrasse

Show闲队长

Bahnhofstrasse is Zurich&#39;s most famous shopping street, luxurious and full of vitality! It is full of top brand stores, exquisite cafes and century-old shops, which is very stylish to visit. The street is clean and elegant, with trams running through it, retro and modern. Although the prices are high, the window viewing and street photography are worth it! It is recommended to experience the exquisite life in Switzerland, remember to bring your wallet~

Museum of Art (Kunsthaus Zurich)

Themed exhibition halls

The Zurich Art Museum is really conscientious. You can see paintings for free on Wednesdays, and storage is also free.

There are more works of famous painters in the new museum. If you don&rsquo;t have enough time, go directly to the new museum. You can see the works of famous painters such as Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir, Picasso, etc. here up close. It is really a super generous museum. I feel that there are a lot of Monet&#39;s paintings.

Fraumunster Church

Zurich&#39;s Frauenkirche is a must-visit landmark! The twin towers are very eye-catching, and the green spires are very photogenic. The interior of the church is simple and elegant, with beautiful stained windows and murals. You can also overlook the beautiful scenery of the whole city from the tower. The location is very convenient, right on the Limmat River, across the river from the cathedral opposite. It is free to visit, quiet and sacred, and suitable for daydreaming and taking photos. Don&#39;t miss it when you come to Zurich!
