As of 16 May 2025, the Centre de la photographie Genève (CPG) is temporarily hosted by the Bibliothèque de Genève at the Espace Ami-Lullin, during the renovation of the Contemporary Art Building (BAC).
With an annual program featuring 4 to 6 exhibitions, alongside the publication of 2 to 3 books, the center actively pioneers innovative approaches to photography’s integration with other arts.
A group exhibition delves into the complex and paradoxical relationship between humans and plants. Acting as indicators of climate change, pharmaceutical resources, or fashion items, plants are laden with diverse cultural meanings. Through documentary, speculative, or experimental works, the artists investigate the status of plants—whether decorative, invasive, or medicinal. The exhibition unravels the myriad representations and values of plants in today’s society, featuring contributions from various artists and institutions like the Conservatory and Botanical Garden of Geneva.
The exhibition showcases the works of the Geneva Photography Survey laureates from 2019, 2020, and 2021, focusing on the theme of mobility. A collaboration between the Geneva Library and the Geneva Photography Center, it highlights pieces by Zoé Aubry, Gabriela Löffel, and Laurence Rasti. Their projects explore the movement of people, the structuring of migratory flows, and bodily transformations, providing a critical perspective on migration policies and societal pressures.
