War Artist
When the Gulf War began, the experience of Canadian forces during "Operation Friction" was captured by the Canadian Armed Forces Civilian Artists Program (CAFCAP). Zuber was selected from among a field of other applicants; and during his time in Qatar, he was recognized as an "official war artist."
Zuber served in the Gulf War Theatre from 21 January to 3 March 1991 as Canada's Official War Artist.
