Mickry 3 MICKRYMORPHOSIS PART 2 ... the artists (Christina Pfander, Dominique Vigne and Nina von Meis) will have their debut North American solo exhibition at Lizabeth Oliveria Gallery. The work of Mickry 3 examines the dichotomy between opposites as they are brought together as one. Essentially, Mickry 3 attempts and succeeds at holding a mirror up to the face of our society and revealing a fascinating - sometimes grotesque - and caricatured reflection of what, upon second glance, is a telling representation of ourselves through another's eyes. For "MICKRYMORPHOSIS PART 2", Mickry 3 will be exhibiting several series of their sculptural morphs. Collaborating together for seven years, Mickry 3 is a group of three women that met at the HSFG in Zurich where they obtained their art degrees. They have exhibited extensively in Switzerland with their "Supermarket" project, which consisted of a site specific installation, handmade products in unlimited editions, and a catalogue (published by Kunstraum Walcheturm, Zurich) which illustrates all the available goods. "Supermarket" represents the concept that art should be for everyone and affordable for any budget. Mickry 3 has had numerous solo exhibitions throughout Europe such as Museum für angewandte und zeitgenössische Kunst, MAK - Wachen im M3 Supermarkt, Vienna, Austria; Lokremise, Sammlung Hauser & Wirth; M3 Supermarkt, St. Gallen, Switzerland; Show Room Holt, Superstudio-Industrio, Supermarketinstallation, Milan, Italy and Galerie Hinterconti, Hamburg, Germany. Mickry 3 has also participated in group exhibitions including Museum Plattenstrasse, Sammlung Häuser und Wir, Zurich, Switzerland; Kunstverein im Hamburger Bahnhof, Feine Ware, Berlin, Germany; and Plattenstrasse, Kristallinstallation, Zurich, Switzerland. They are represented by Galerie Groeflin Maag, Basel, Switzerland. This exhibition has been partially funded by Pro Helvetia Arts Council Switzerland.
