Thoughtforms – Questions We Ask of Ourselves

Taste Contemporary presents a solo exhibition of work by Michael Brennand-Wood, bringing early pieces into dialogue with recent works. Across the presentation, thread becomes both material and metaphor: a means of connection, repair, strength, and unifying fragmented elements. The artist moves between disciplines while pursuing a sustained enquiry into form, symbolism, and the quiet intelligence of making. The exhibition offers a layered view of an evolving practice shaped by continuity, experimentation, and reflection.

22 September – 30 August

Border Forensics presents an audiovisual exhibition of investigative films documenting violence at borders.
Excerpts from three films, The Death of Blessing Matthew (2022), The Death of Roger Nzoy Wilhelm (2025) and Asymmetric Visions (2023), combine documentary footage with geospatial analysis, data visualization and 3D modeling. The works reconstruct contested events, interrogate aerial surveillance and Mediterranean migration control, and foreground communities affected by border violence. The project examines how images and data can document abuses, challenge official narratives and advance claims for mobility justice.

Opening: September 22, 18h30 – speeches, performance, drinks.

Permanent exhibition

Ceramics and glass get their moment in the spotlight at the Ariana. From delicate porcelain to bold contemporary pieces, the collection shows just how inventive the “fire arts” can be, all inside one of Geneva’s most distinctive museum buildings.

29 October – 4 December

Matières vivantes brings together the botanical paintings of Clarissa P. Valaeys and the sculptural works of Lisa Novel. Through pigments, earth and fibres, the two artists explore a relationship with nature that informs both form and material. Valaeys layers botanical motifs and translucent passages, sometimes using pigments made from plants and minerals, while Novel weaves fibres into textured, earthy volumes. Together their practices emphasise attentiveness to organic shapes, material presence and a quiet, sensory mode of looking.

Opening: Thursday 29 October, 18:00

Permanent exhibition

Calvin, Geneva, and a movement that reshaped Europe. Just steps from St Peter’s Cathedral, the MIR traces the Reformation through paintings, manuscripts, rare books, objects and multimedia — turning a complex chapter of religious and political history into an accessible visit.

30 October – 5 December

Artist Hunter Longe presents a sculptural installation exploring temporalities that outlast human experience. Overworked and found materials—shaped by erosion, human interventions and geological forces—form mutable constellations where micro- and macro-temporalities meet. The show stages collaborative works including a sound composition with Janiv Oron and ritual-inflected poems by CAConrad, amplifying poetic and material registers. Longe treats found objects as offerings from deep time, repositioning them to shift our perception of duration and agency.

Opening: Thursday 29 October, 18:00

Permanent exhibition

Even if you’re not a watch person, this might change your mind. Around 2,500 watches, automata, precious objects and enamel miniatures chart five centuries of watchmaking, from extraordinary early timepieces to Patek Philippe creations. Geneva craftsmanship at its most meticulous.
