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.
Crossings brings together Swiss artist Maria Ceppi and Japanese artist Tami Ichino in a poetic dialogue exploring memory, transformation, and the hidden resonance of everyday forms. Through sculpture, painting, and assemblage, the artists reinterpret familiar materials and natural elements into evocative compositions that move between abstraction and recognition. Blending intuition, symbolism, and material experimentation, the exhibition creates immersive spaces where personal narratives intersect with broader reflections on nature, coexistence, perception, and the shifting relationship between humanity and the world around us. Hosted by GOWEN Contemporary, Crossings invites viewers into a contemplative journey where objects, landscapes, and emotions continuously evolve across forms, meanings, and states of being.
Painter Elise van den Brand examines figurative painting and the dynamics of the gaze in a new body of work. Through cropped portraits and fragmentary compositions she interrogates the tension between how subjects intend to be seen and how viewers project narratives onto images. The exhibition draws on Sartre’s notion of le regard, explores social armour as protective presentation, and probes the instability that emerges when contextual markers are removed, exposing ambiguous subjectivities.
Genevan artist Gamo (born 1974) draws from the 1980s graffiti and hip‑hop scene to transform abandoned objects and recovered cardboard into vibrant mixed‑media works. Executed on repurposed cartons, his pictorial surfaces combine acrylic, brush, airbrush and spray to conjure a fantastical urban imaginary.
The exhibition explores recycling, material transformation and memory, questioning consumption while evoking street culture’s visual language and the poetics of found matter.
Opening: Thursday 18 June, 18:00 – 21:00
This spring, Villa Bernasconi hosts Helvetropicos, a platform that brings together Switzerland-based artists with strong ties to Latin America. The exhibition explores hybrid identities and contemporary forms of cultural mixing through diverse works—installations, sculptures, paintings, and more—inviting visitors to rethink how reality is shaped and experienced.
Opening : Tuesday 5 May, 18:00 – 21:00
Alice Izzo presents Botanic Circus, an immersive installation that transforms natural elements into a poetic visual performance. Through site-specific sculptural forms, coloured assemblies of flowers, plants and fruit become staged protagonists, inviting slow wandering, close observation and tactile interaction. The work blends installation, painted surfaces and ephemeral botanical assemblage to probe nature’s textures, theatricality and human perception. A parallel programme of monthly acrylic painting workshops complements the installation.
