To mark its 35th anniversary, Reporters Without Borders Switzerland is hosting the exhibition “Photographing the World of Tomorrow” at Uni Dufour. The exhibition highlights the work of 40 photojournalists, focusing on themes such as the environment, exile, and crises. Introduced at the True Story Festival in Bern, this global tribute captures the transformation of the world through images that reveal suffering, resilience, and hope, underscoring the vital role of independent journalism.
For his first solo exhibition in Geneva, Gregor Hildebrandt transforms Galerie Mezzanin into a poetic space of memory and transformation. Using materials such as magnetic tape, vinyl records, and audio cassettes, he reinterprets the physical traces of the analog world, turning familiar forms into sculptural and pictorial works. His installations evoke themes of transfer, nostalgia, and the fragility of memory, reminding us that remembrance once had a tangible medium. Balancing irony and reverence, Hildebrandt questions the role of the artist in an age dominated by digital reproduction, suggesting that art now resides not in direct representation of reality, but in the layered density of collective memory and desire.
