Flora Incognita

Free

Curated by Leticia Maciel, Flora Incognita brings together works by David Elia, Marius Margot, Vivianne van Singer, Heberth Sobral and Vasilis Zografos to explore unclassified plant worlds as a metaphor for artistic practices that resist fixed categories. Ceramics form a central thread: clay appears as a material of memory and transformation in Sobral’s, Zografos’s and Elia’s work. Elia’s cyanotypes probe botanical archives and classification systems, van Singer investigates colour and perception, and Margot proposes speculative vegetal ecologies where nature and fiction converge.

Opening : 17 September, 18:00

David Medalla

Renowned for dissolving the boundaries between artist and audience, his work celebrated collaboration, transformation, and human connection through ever-changing, interactive creations. Blending political engagement with poetic imagination, Medalla explored themes of identity, migration, ecology, memory, and collective experience, leaving a lasting influence on contemporary art. This exhibition offers an opportunity to discover the work of one of the most visionary and experimental artists of the twentieth century, whose playful yet profound practice continues to inspire new generations of artists and audiences alike.

Permanent exhibition

Geneva’s Military History

Art & Exhibits

Musée militaire

Two centuries of Geneva history told through uniforms, photographs, posters, equipment, and personal objects. Rather than simply lining up military artefacts, the museum places them back into the events and stories that shaped the canton from the Restoration to the present day.

Their Crops, Our Roots – Portraits of Women in Geneva’s Countryside

Art & Exhibits

Promenade de l'Observatoire

Photographer Bertrand Carlier presents a series of large-format portraits that foreground women working across Geneva’s agricultural landscape. The photographs depict market gardeners, winegrowers, fruit growers, livestock farmers and cellar managers in their working environments, using natural light and documentary framing.
The project explores gender, labour and continuity, revealing how women’s labour shapes rural economies and biocultural traditions. Set against the UN’s International Year of the Woman Farmer 2026, the work invites renewed attention to the diversity of skills and trajectories within contemporary Geneva agriculture.

Solo Séverin Guelpa – Rift

Art & Exhibits

HiFlow

Swiss artist Séverin Guelpa presents Rift, a vast immersive installation that shapes a sonic and telluric twilight. The work stages the fault as a porous space of listening, passage and transformation, where subterranean sounds converse with human voices and instrumental resonances. The presentation includes a live sound performance and collaborative vocal interventions with Varoujan Chetirian (sound composition), Antoine Läng (vocals and instrument) and Yvonne Harder (vocals), articulating material, temporal and acoustic relations.

Opening: Friday 18 September, 18:00

The Darkroom, Dye Lab & Kiln

Art & Exhibits

Taste Contemporary

An exhibition presenting work by Garry Fabian Miller, Ptolemy Mann and Marit Tingleff, curated by Sarah Griffin. Across photography, weaving and ceramics, the show explores the darkroom, the dye lab and the kiln as sites of material transformation. The artists draw on deep embodied knowledge and long practice, using process, environment and material behaviour to shape outcomes. The works probe attention to texture, colour and time, revealing subtle relations between technique and the natural conditions that inform each practice.

Echo Chamber

Art & Exhibits

Maison de l'enfance et de l'adolescence (MEA)

Echo Chamber is an immersive, interactive and participatory exhibition that probes self-image and perception. Housed in a contained space, it stages a sequence of installations and collaborative artworks that invite visitors to engage, modify and reflect on representations of identity. The show extends into a virtual environment, using audiovisual and sensor-driven elements to examine how images circulate, transform and are interpreted—raising questions about gaze, agency and consent in contemporary visual culture.
