L’ordre mis en jeu – Gerhard Hotter

German artist Gerhard Hotter (born 1954) presents a survey of works that unfolds across five decades, exploring play as a mode of learning and experimentation. Early paintings from the 1980s evoke inner labyrinths populated by chess pieces, playing cards and miniature toys; later works evolve into modular constructions inspired by Bauhaus toys, privileging pure form, volume, colour and combinable structures. Hotter employs Langford sequences as compositional tools, situating his practice within concrete art where order becomes an active, playful principle. Recent pieces expand this enquiry through relief, light and spatial interventions.

Opening during the Nuit des Bains, Thursday 12 March, 18:00.

Rue des Bains 24,

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.

An exhibition presents around sixty works from the Plan-les-Ouates Art Fund, featuring paintings, sculptures, works on paper and installations. Artists such as Ruth Baettig, Carine Bovey, Sarah Carp, Georges Dessouslavy and Maya Rochat explore repetition, materiality and form through varied techniques: collage, printmaking, ceramics, video and mixed media. The selection stages dialogues between generational perspectives and examines how multiples, process and everyday objects shape contemporary artistic practice.

18 February – 8 May

Zoe A. Keller and Batia Suter reactivate the Eranos Archive in a collaborative project that blends critical essay and photographic installation. Keller’s research interrogates archetypal image systems and proposes the concept of the “anarchetype” to unsettle fixed classifications, while Suter juxtaposes historical Eranos images with contemporary-period photographs. Together they examine ideological contradictions and heterogeneous visual encounters of the interwar archive, opening a fictional conceptual field that foregrounds the archive’s historical vulnerability and the politics of visual classification.

11 – 29 March

Artisans from the Label Genève association present a group exhibition of urban works that bridges contemporary creation, craftsmanship, and technological innovation. The show brings together individual and collective pieces—furniture, objects and site-responsive interventions—that combine traditional techniques, material research and digital processes. Grounded in New Bauhaus principles of sustainability, circularity and interdisciplinarity, the works reveal demanding creative approaches, highlighting artisanal labour, experimental materials and dialogues between handmaking and technological evolution.
