Moritz Baumann (b.1973) will be showing 15 landscape paintings of Swiss mountain scenes at Ross Hamilton, 95 Pimlico Road, London SW1W 8PH (tel/fax 0207 730 3015 - contact: Mark Boyce) from March 3rd to March 31st 2010.
The exhibition is titled `MOUNTAIN PAINTINGS – Visions of Light in the Swiss Alps` and will be open Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm and 10am to 5pm on Saturdays.
Moritz painted his first mountain painting in 1997. They are remarkable for the light they capture, their sense of depth, scale and moment – looking at his paintings one can almost taste the air.
Moritz pairs his paintings with carefully selected antique frames because he wants people to look at them in a historical context. He sees his work as a continuation of the ideas which once moved the expressionists and post-impressionists.
Technically, his paintings are painted on birch plywood with acrylic polymer paint, using brushes and fingers. He often uses some reflective paint in his paintings - it helps achieve some of the vivid light-effects that make the alpine landscape so pure, as well as making his paintings `shimmer` as the viewer moves around them, which he likes.

The Pimlico Road in Belgravia officially celebrated the start of summer last night with the annual Summer Party. The local community, as well as guests including designer Roland Mouret, Nicky Haslam, actress and former Bond girl Maryam d’Arbo and author John Rendall were out in force to celebrate one of the most unique shopping streets in the world.
An eclectic mix of entertainment got people in the party spirit; the Ebony Steel Band had people dancing, a barrel organ and a Victorian themed penny farthing double-act were popular with children and adults alike; and a traditional ice cream stall served delicious organic ice cream. A Pearly King happily chatted to visitors, reminding them that the Pimlico Road really is one London’s most loved treasures.
The stores opened their doors serving guests drinks and canapés; Daylesford Organic offered tasters of their much loved Château Léoube Rose wine, as well as hosting food demonstrations for their cookery school. Wild at Heart greeted guests with bunches of colourful posies and held flower demonstrations.

The PIMLICO ROAD DESIGN DISTRICT is proud to present Side by Side, an exciting new concept of three concurrent but very different autumn exhibitions. ANTHONY OUTRED ANTIQUES, NICHOLAS GIFFORD MEAD FIRE PLACES & JULIAN SIMON FINE ART
Knock Knock, The Grate Exhibition and A private Eye
Brand new collections will be showcased in this one off design exhibition with a chance to meet the experts in an area that has always been associated with art and antiques.
Anthony Outred presents their special exhibition of antique brass door furniture to celebrate the launch of their antique metalware department. “Door Furniture is of the utmost importance to an interior. We have created this exciting exhibition to demonstrate the infinite variety, rich colour, fine chasing and solidity that only Antique Metalwork can bring to architectural decoration.”
Julian Simon Fine Art proudly presents A Private Eye, featuring a unique and personal collection of 20th Century paintings, including work by Poucette, Montoya, Bombois and Murray. This group of singularly individual yet instantly evocative images is the result of a single collector’s vision over several decades. Modern Primitive and naïve paintings, range from the 1930s – 1970s and features artists from Europe, Latin America and Africa. "These paintings represent a renewed interest in a much neglected artistic movement of the mid-twentieth century, they are light hearted and amusing representations of the everyday and the fantastical."
Nicholas Gifford Mead presents The Grate Exhibition, a unique collection of antique firegrates, fire tools and fire accessories. “Consumers are finally returning and investing in the arts and antique markets and are purchasing paintings, antiques and objects d’art to enjoy and value as long term investments”.
