23 January – 2 April

An immersive exhibition exploring neutrinos, the nearly undetectable particles that traverse Earth by the billions each second. Through large-scale photographic works, scientific models, archival imagery and interactive displays, the show traces the experimental ingenuity behind detectors such as Super Kamiokande. It juxtaposes cutting‑edge instrumentation with poetic reflections on scale, invisibility and the cosmos, inviting visitors to consider how technological precision reveals fundamental processes that shape our understanding of matter and the universe.

5 March – 10 April

Swiss artist Jean-Philippe Kalonji presents a sensitive series of portrait drawings that probe identity, memory and human presence. Working mainly with graphite and water-based media, he renders subtle gestures and gazes that bridge inner life and outward expression. The works range from intimate, near-figurative studies to more spare, contemplative surfaces, employing contemporary drawing techniques to question how portraiture reveals emotion and history. The exhibition invites deliberate, close looking at the human figure.

28 January – 15 March

Swiss artist Grégory Sugnaux presents a body of paintings that stage ambiguous, often hybrid figures—part human, part animal, serial androids and distorted, sometimes monstrous bodies. Combining grotesque allusion with ironic self-reflection, he mixes genres and pictorial techniques to render surfaces alternately smooth and vibrating, fracturing legibility.
A composed soundtrack threads through the installation, amplifying the exhibition’s uneasy pulsation. The works negotiate a fragile balance between fascination and self-critique, revealing vulnerability beneath playful, unsettling imagery.

4 – 29 March

Iris Leroyer presents Rez:urgence, a series of material-based works exploring contemporary urgencies—ecological, social and philosophical. Working through matter and its memories, Leroyer probes tipping points between entropic decay and regenerative processes, where the living oscillates between collapse and resurgence. The exhibition gathers tactile, process-oriented pieces that reveal histories embedded in materials and invite reflection on emergence, imbalance and the possible forms of renewal. It forms a chapter of the artist’s Opus Carbone project at the intersection of art and ecology.

29 October 2025 – 31 May 2026

Pleasing the Spirits invites you on a journey through the Barbier-Mueller Collection, showcasing artworks from around the globe. Curated by Séverine Fromaigeat and Paul Maheke, the exhibition offers an open-ended exploration of diverse objects, awakening spirits and uncovering territories to discover.

5 March – 4 April

Clara Roumégoux examines production relations and the pressure to be productive through a concise series of works. Addressing food, design and sleep, she subverts everyday objects so they become signifiers of our era. Through moving image, print, installation and playful references to painting, her practice blurs domesticity and industry, care and efficiency. The exhibition questions habitual assumptions and evokes the subtle social forces that shape everyday routines and bodily rhythms.
