The Miraculous Geneva is a group exhibition that brings together contemporary Geneva-based artists in tribute to the late artist Daniel Orson Ybarra. Featuring works by Stéphane Ducret and other renowned local artists, the exhibition celebrates the diversity and vitality of Geneva’s contemporary art scene through painting, sculpture, and multidisciplinary practices.
Intermezzo, Part 1 & 2 brings together works by Vincent Fournier, Franz Gertsch, Fabrice Gygi, Thomas Huber, Pierre Schwerzmann and Franz Erhard Walther. The group show stages a dialogue between photographic practice, painting and sculptural or performative interventions, highlighting contrasts of scale, materiality and pictorial space. Through composed images, painted surfaces and tactile objects, the exhibition considers modes of representation and the viewer’s bodily relation to works, encouraging slow looking and attentive spatial experience.
Inner Light is a Swiss artistic collective founded by Kim Coussée, Eliott Villars and Gaia Vincensini that works at the intersection of contemporary art, fashion and publishing. Their transdisciplinary practice combines printmaking, textile, sculpture and performance to question the circulation of printed images across unconventional supports. For this project they invited artist Lyna Azwaw to stage an edition inspired by documents and publications found in archives. The presentation includes performances and contributions by Js Donny, Rosalie Dubois and Leandro Russo.
Opening: Thursday 9 July, 20:00 – 22:00
Genevan artist Gérald Grosjean presents a focused series of paintings and handcrafted maquettes that examine industrial and railway landscapes. The show gathers twenty-seven canvases and three models made from reclaimed materials, emphasising a pointillist approach to structures such as stations, bridges, dams, factories and viaducts. Through meticulous dots and assembled found objects, Grosjean explores the aesthetic presence and collective memory of infrastructure, inviting reflection on material reuse and the visual poetry of engineered landscapes.
Opening : Tuesday 19 May, 18:00
Winning photographers of the Giga Photo Award 2026 examine what connection means when infrastructures are fragile or unevenly distributed.
Through documentary and reportage photography, the series traces stories of connection under pressure: youth-led digital movements in Kenya, improvised rooftop newsrooms in Sudan, remote classrooms in Ukraine and prison cells in Argentina where phones sustain family ties. The works reveal connectivity as both lifeline and point of tension, questioning who can connect, when, and at what cost.
Dany Gignoux (photographer) and poet Georges Haldas present a compelling dialogue between documentary photography and lyrical prose. The exhibition brings together photographs and written fragments that register everyday life in Geneva’s cafés, combining on-the-spot reportage with memory-infused “prose inspirée.” Through intimate black-and-white images and spare, evocative texts the works transfigure mundane scenes into poetic testimony, revealing social undercurrents and human tenderness. Archival materials frame this historic encounter between two generations of cultural chroniclers.
This exhibition brings together archival photographs, historical medical objects and contemporary works to examine how illness is represented and embodied. Through photography, installation and mixed-media pieces, artists probe how bodily experience resists language and is translated into image, narrative and presence. The presentation includes a new work by Sabrina Röthlisberger Belkacem and is curated by Sara Petrucci with scenography by OnLab, creating a dialogue between archives and recent artistic responses.
