http://www.vernissage.tv | The current exhibition at the gallery Blancpain Art Contemporain in Geneva / Switzerland is a solo show with works by the New York-based artist Amy O'Neill. The exhibition is titled "V" for "Victory Gardens" and refers back to the World Wars I and II, when American and English citizens were urged to plant vegetable gardens to reduce the pressure on the public food supply. Another aim was to boost the morale on the home front. The artist takes this patriotic effort as inspiration for her sculptures, installations and drawings that are on display at the gallery.

Amy O'Neill was born in 1971 in Beaver, Pennsylvania / USA. Currently, she lives and works in New York. Her solo exhibitions include shows at Centre Cultural Suisse in Paris; MAMCO in Geneva; and The Box, Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus Ohio. The exhibition at Blancpain Art Contemporain runs until June 30, 2012.

Amy O'Neill: "V". Solo exhibition at Blancpain Art Contemporain, Genève. Opening reception, May 3, 2012 (Nuit des Bains).
