"When you look at a Zuck painting you can actually hear your brain get quieter. You are drawn in by unadorned purity, but then, once drawn in, you begin to realize that there’s nothing simple about line or colour or form. If you’re a Buddhist, you already understand this. And if you’re not, Zuck’s paintings make you think it might not be a bad idea to give Buddhism a try." Click here to read the Toronto Star review by David Macfarlane
