Florian Luthi. Fantômes Météores

Art & Exhibits

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

Photographer Florian Luthi’s Fantômes Météores is inspired by the 1954 wave of UFO sightings across France, especially along the Franco‑Swiss border. From one of these accounts he revisits childhood landscapes—mist‑shrouded forests, deserted villages and the Jura—and composes a photographic narrative where truth wavers and legends endure. The series uses long exposures, muted palettes and staged absence to probe memory, collective fear and the boundary between documentary and myth. A collaboration with Fondation Convergences.

MAMCO x MAH – Sylvia Sleigh: Refaire collection

Art & Exhibits

Musée Rath

Sylvia Sleigh’s retrospective pairs the artist’s figurative painting with ‘Refaire collection’, a polygraphic project offering a feminist rereading of art-history canons. Sleigh, a Welsh painter active in New York, is known for reversing gendered norms—placing the male nude where the female traditionally appears—and for portraits of the 1960s–70s New York art community. ‘Refaire collection’ gathers Swiss holdings and works by artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Meret Oppenheim, Pipilotti Rist, Joan Semmel and the Guerrilla Girls across painting, sculpture, video, drawing and photography.

Art & Exhibits

Skopia Art Contemporain

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.
