Alice McCabe
UK/CH *1984
Moved from London to Zürich in 2010
Performs under the name the “There-There School of English Dada.”
In her first exhibition the artist displays paintings “Made in Switzerland” alongside a series of 2D works created by squashing and glueing balloons together in baking paper.
With this new technique she records her impressions and response to things she has glimpsed in the city: a tram machine, reaction to being fined, relationship between artist and gallerist and robi dog sack instructions.
Overall she hopes the show is balanced (between balloon works and paintings) through the use of colour and sensitivity to the quality of the materials to leave the spectator feeling invigorated, ready to look at Zürich afresh.

Enzo Comin
Enzo Comin, *1979, artist, works with installation, performances and photography. http://cominenzo.blogspot.it
During his Freiraum Stipendium Enzo Comin sets his new project: to reach the aim to make on one picture a synthesis between the material and the formal of the photography, where the manual should be involved. The manual intervention on photography in the first instance is not directed to create a depiction, but visions at last in a look prevalently abstract because it is a result of experiences in the world of the imagination out of the ordinary time and space. The final product is a photographic image in which is no longer reflected the reality as the canonical working of photography, but where it's suggested the clue of additional figures.
A search began a few years ago and that increasingly finds ways to unveil what it may be called a fog on the horizon of a different world, alien, a new world. These first images of a new world are the first attempts to understand, like the primitive drawings on cave walls.
