Elisabeth Zwick – Current Series
The Weird Sisters

This series interweaves literary archetype with the historical fascination of the witch, from the wise women of the Alps to the demonised imagery of the early modern era. Acrylic and mixed media on canvas. Exhibited in Bolzano, Galleria Artisti Via Bottai 4 from 29/06 – 11/07/2026 and in Silandro Schlandersburg from 21/07 – 25/08/2026
About the Artist Elisabeth Zwick
Painting at the edge of control
Elisabeth Zwick is a contemporary painter and mixed-media artist from the Vinschgau region of South Tyrol, Italy. Her large-format acrylic works explore identity, belonging and the limits of control.
Formed in Taiwan, England, and the mountain valleys of her homeland, her practice draws on art therapy, Chinese painting traditions, and the visceral immediacy of acrylic on large canvas.
