Swiss Artist „Onur“ paints Zurich using Cocaine

Der Schweizer Künstler Onur hat eine verschneite Winterkulisse der Stadt Zürich mit Koks gemalt. The artist says: “I wanted to paint a very prude artwork which looks like a master piece which you could find at your grandmother’s living room. The work gets its message only if you know what I mixed into the color”. And Onur adds: “This is how it is in real life. At the first glance Zurich looks very lovely and almost perfect. But at second one you will find out that not all is gold that glitters”

Zurich is not only known for its banks, cleanliness, lakeside promenade but also as one of the world leaders of cocaine consummation. Swiss artist Onur Dinc thematized this in his new artwork with the title “Snowing in Zurich”. The masterpiece shows a lovely view of a snow-covered Zurich. The 35-year-old artist mixed real cocaine into the acrylic to paint the snow on the rooftops of the old town of the Swiss city. Onur’s masterpiece is now on display at SOON Gallery Bern in Switzerland.
