Senegalese artist Adji Diouf presents a solo exhibition of paintings that move between figuration and abstraction. Colour structures the compositions, with warm, luminous palettes where the gaze becomes an anchor in abstract fields. Recurrent cultural motifs emerge across canvases, informing a poetic and visual vocabulary. The show highlights the artist’s sustained practice and pictorial exploration of memory, identity and transmission through layered surfaces and rhythmic forms.
Afro‑Caribbean Stories brings together works by Ivonne González Núñez and Laura Arminda Kingsley that weave narratives of memory, identity and visibility rooted in Afro‑Caribbean cosmologies. Through photography, writing, performance, painting, digital imagery and sculpture, the artists examine heritage, resistance, creolisation and the interconnections of the living. The exhibition pairs intimate archival gestures with experimental material practices to reveal layered histories and speculative modes of belonging.
Opening: 28 May, 18:00
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.
This exhibition assembles objects old and new, from video games and pop culture gadgets to robots like the Omnibot 2000, Daruma statuettes and various oracles. Presented as a cabinet of curiosities, it probes beliefs, technological imaginaries and our relationship to progress. The displays offer strategies for dialoguing with the future, showcase artistic works imagining desirable futures and explore possible developments conceived locally. Content is aimed at ages 8 to 108.

Intermezzo brings together a constellation of international and Swiss artists including Pierre-Olivier Arnaud, Silvia Bächli, Franz Gertsch, Olivier Mosset, Claude Rutault and Franz Erhard Walther. The group show juxtaposes painting, drawing, photography and sculptural interventions to explore materiality, repetition and spatial gesture. Works range from refined drawings and large-scale canvases to object-based installations, inviting a dialogue between figuration and abstraction and reflecting on process, surface and the performative possibilities of form.
Opening: Thursday 21 May, 18:00
Measures of Infinity brings together works by Susanna Bauer, Frankie Gao and Carol Prusa in a contemplative exhibition of drawings, installations and meticulously crafted objects. Bauer transforms fragile leaves into intricate, almost meditative compositions; Gao offers pared-back drawings and open installations that evoke cosmic structures; Prusa constructs pieces informed by scientific models and unseen phenomena. Across scale and material, the show explores perception, precision and the tension between the intimate and the vast, inviting close looking and slow attention.
Song Ruijin presents her first institutional solo exhibition, assembling a new series of paintings and ceramic sculptures within a site-specific installation. She constructs an unstable universe where the sky becomes ground and interior merges with exterior, populated by emoji-like figures that reflect individual alienation and the absurdities of digital capitalism. Through a syncretic visual language of accumulating imagery—sometimes comforting, sometimes unsettling—her sensory installations reveal logics of exploitation and control affecting human and non-human actors.
Opening: Thursday 28 May, 18:00
