Zaam Arif to Present New Paintings in Solo Exhibition at Art Brussels 2026

Maruani Mercier gallery will feature a solo presentation of recent paintings by Zaam Arif at Art Brussels from April 23 to 26, 2026. The exhibition, titled 'I Saw Brief Glimpses of Beauty,' explores themes of memory and perception through works that blend interior scenes, portraits, and landscapes. Arif's approach combines influences from Modernist film and literature with personal recollections, using varied brushwork to create compositions that suggest fleeting, retinal afterimages. The artist describes focusing on emotional responses rather than direct observation in the creative process.
