1 – 18 October

Adjustment

Painter Gustave Didelot presents a structured practice around his concept the ‘Monde de peinture’, developed through accumulation and sustained observation. The exhibition comprises canvases that blend figural fragments, architectural motifs, and cultural references—from video games to contemporary art—producing a visual language that oscillates between mirror and distortion. Using layered paint and attentive composition, Didelot sketches a utopian elsewhere: paintings work as windows that invite projection, reveal alternative narratives, and occasionally suggest emergent forms that entangle play and perception.

Opening: 1 October, 18h30

Permanent exhibition

What does humanitarian action actually look like? Personal stories, objects and immersive installations bring visitors face-to-face with questions of dignity, displacement, family and resilience. The permanent exhibition is currently evolving towards a completely redesigned experience in 2028 — and remains open throughout the process.

18 September – 25 October

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

16 March – 14 November

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.

27 August – 15 November

Antoine Roth presents a photography exhibition focused on atmospheric and optical phenomena observed over Lake Geneva. Working with a digital camera and a long‑focal lens, he photographs distant horizons where light, water and air converge. The series documents rare mirages, notably the Fata Morgana, exploring the boundary between perceptual illusion and measurable physical event. Through patient field observation and precise framing, Roth examines how light and thermal gradients sculpt landscape appearances and challenge our sense of materiality.

Opening: 27 August, 18:00

3 September – 30 November

Votive brings together Rachel Labastie and Robert Montgomery in an exhibition exploring desire, belief, memory and shared dreams for the future. Through sculpture, poetry, light, and site-specific installations, the artists reflect on peace, human connection, and the transformative power of art.

Opening: Wednesday 3 September at 18:00.
