Fleuves de vie, vie des fleuves

Presented by the Interfaith Platform of Geneva, this exhibition traces ten major rivers across the world through geography, beliefs, traditions, biodiversity, and natural resources. Rather than a purely documentary survey, it reveals rivers as living environments where cultural memory, ecological interdependence, and spiritual meaning converge. The exhibition invites viewers to reflect on the beauty and fragility of these ecosystems, and on the many ways human communities have understood and inhabited river landscapes.

Exhibition at the Maison de l’Avenir, Impact Hub, Geneva – October 30 to December 6
Guided tours of the exhibition – November 12 and 25 at 6:30 PM
Round table discussion – November 24 at 7:00 PM

Rue Fendt 1,

In the Shadow of Discovery

Art & Exhibits

Musée d'histoire des sciences

Our eyes are naturally drawn to light and what shines. Yet what could be more fascinating than shadow? Shadows have enabled many fundamental discoveries: the shape of the Earth, the calculation of its circumference, the identification of electrons, and the understanding of planetary motion. They accompany us and enrich our thinking. Come and explore them to learn more about their role in science.

Exhibition in French & in English.

30 October – 5 December

Reality Solvent – Hunter Longe

Art & Exhibits

Halle Nord

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

Thomas Fougeirol

Art & Exhibits

Galerie Sébastien Bertrand

Thomas Fougeirol’s first solo exhibition investigates painting as an uncertain field between surface and relief, image and matter. Through a sequence of repaints layered over earlier Dust Paintings, Fougeirol activates texture, pigment and gesture to blur pictorial depth and sculptural presence. The show foregrounds material encounter and process-led decisions, emphasising modulation of light, density and sedimented histories within oil-and-pigment canvases that oscillate between representation and objecthood.

Opening: Wednesday 7 October

Permanent exhibition

Arts & Cultures of the World

Art & Exhibits

Musée Barbier-Mueller

A small museum with a very big world inside. Hidden in Geneva’s Old Town, Barbier-Mueller draws on several thousand works spanning Antiquity to the present and representing cultures from across the globe. Displays change regularly, so there is always another part of this remarkable collection to discover.

Investigating Border Violence, Promoting ‘Mobility Justice’

Art & Exhibits

Uni Mail

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

The Tatiana Zoubov Collection

Art & Exhibits

Musée Fondation Tatiana Zoubov

More a time capsule than a traditional museum. Step into Countess Zoubov’s elegant 18th-century world, where furniture, paintings, porcelain, and decorative arts remain arranged much as she intended in the 1950s. Among the 525 recorded pieces are numerous objects connected to Catherine II’s Russia.
