Spoken Word – Almost tender

For the finissage of teh exhibition Almost Tender, Christian Schulz will lead a poetic reading through the exhibition spaces of the Ferme de la Chapelle. In a guided drift lasting around fifteen minutes — from the attic to the ruins of the former chapel outside — visitors will follow a moving reading of a poem on time and rhythm, extending the exhibition’s sound composition. Written and performed in English, Schulz’s native language, the piece echoes the oral tradition of the Beat Generation, where voice, breath and rhythm carry thought through space.

In French.

Terre de Crète presents a photographic exploration of portraiture and its limits. The series transplants specimens of Cretan flora onto small mounds of earth, arranged and lit in a studio-register that evokes Irving Penn’s restrained still life. Through meticulous composition and tactile detail, the works probe the border between botanical study and human portrait, inviting reflection on staging, scale and the politics of representation.

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

3 – 15 March

Morpho is the first photographic exhibition by Lamine Jammeh (Lemz.O) that honors dancers who assert their identities beyond appearance. Through staged portraits and a sensitive visual language, Jammeh explores themes of identity, embodiment and performative selfhood. The series celebrates diversity, courage and the expressive power of movement, presenting intimate, high-contrast images that foreground presence and gesture. Scenography by Lola Delbec and portraits include Sofiane Chalal, Missy NRC, Samantha Panda Laley, Maela Bouguila and Nicolas Meyapan.

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.

20 February – 29 November

Marie Ducaté presents Simultanés, an installation that transposes the spirit and traces of her studio into a theatre of objects. Combining ceramics, tracing paper, watercolor, textile and glass, the work sits at the intersection of pop culture and art history. The installation foregrounds a chromatic range from vivid colour to transparency and investigates the sensuality of materials, inviting close attention to texture, surface and the intimate relationships between form and materiality. Curated by Claire FitzGerald.

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.
