The stained glass collections of the Musée Ariana are coming out of storage! When the museum was bequeathed to the City of Geneva in 1890, Gustave Revilliod had acquired 118 stained glass pieces. Today, the museum boasts over 400 pieces, spanning from the 12th to the 21st century. The fifth installment of the “The Ariana Unveils Its Reserves” series showcases an exceptional selection of this heritage.
The duo exhibition Memory Shelf by Gritli Faulhaber and Augusta Lardy Micheli invites viewers into a delicate dialogue between presence and absence. Their works, displayed side by side but never fully aligned, explore the edges of perception and meaning. Faulhaber’s large-scale collages evoke quiet, breath-held moments where absence speaks volumes, while Lardy’s paintings reveal sudden gestures born from long internal reflections. Together, they navigate the space between hesitation and revelation, inviting us to linger in what resists clear definition.
Opening on Thursday July 10, from 18:00 to 21:00 on the occasion of the Nuit des Bains.
The Artists Against the Bomb exhibition at Parc des Bastions brings together over 30 international artists and collectives, including Pussy Riot, Guerrilla Girls, and Thomas Hirschhorn, to contemplate the legacy of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and advocate for a world free from nuclear weapons.

The Martin Bodmer Foundation, in collaboration with the Conservatoire and Botanical Garden of Geneva and the Bains des Pâquis, presents “Verts d’eaux – Aquatic Plants from Near and Far.” This summer exhibition is dedicated to the diverse world of aquatic plants found in rivers, lakes, seas, and oceans. Combining botanical wonder, artistic interpretation, and scientific inquiry, the exhibition highlights the relationship between aquatic plants and Geneva’s landscape, as well as their portrayal in both literary and religious texts. Curated by Nicolas Ducimetière and Pierre Boillat, with artistic direction by Yoann Givry, visitors are invited to enjoy an enlightening stroll.
In Together Separated, Rebecca Brodskis explores the delicate tension between intimacy and isolation in a hyperconnected yet emotionally distant world. Her stylized figures, caught in quiet moments of waiting or withdrawal, reveal the paradox of being together yet apart—physically close, but psychically distant. With subtle tones and suspended gestures, Brodskis paints a haunting portrait of modern disconnection, especially as it shapes women’s inner lives.
“AI, Imagination, and Innovation” is an outdoor exhibition presented by Mich’Line, a project from the City of Thônex Art Fund along the Voie Verte. Open to all, the exhibition questions the role of artificial intelligence in artistic creation. Swiss artists Maëlle Gross and Elsa Wagnières delve into AI’s potential and limitations through works that blur the lines between reality and fiction. Gross tackles the postpartum experience with AI-generated compositions, while Wagnières offers an imagined bestiary reflecting environmental and technological impacts. This immersive installation invites contemplation on the aesthetic, ethical, and environmental challenges in our digital world.
The exhibition invites you on a journey through anatomical models, casts, waxworks, and illustrated antique books.
