The Meter ReaderPhilip Christian Zimmerman lives and works in San Francisco and has exhibited in San Francisco, Portland and New York City over the past three decades.

"Christian Philip Zimmerman creates intensely poetic and symbolically redolent sculptures. In works such as Compass and Sentence, [he] embraces the co-existence of death and beauty. Head is a tour de force of assemblage, combining found objects into an hallucinatory psychosexual whirl." - Lawrence Rinder
"The craftsmanship is as good as any you are ever going to find among contemporary painters. As a painted surface, it's pretty unbelievable. The detail work he was able to bring to the fore is in the tradition of 15th or 16th century Renaissance painting." - Steven Rosen, Director, Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art
