Founded in 2012, Galerie Sébastien Bertrand is a contemporary art gallery situated in Eaux-Vives that primarily represents young and emerging international artists. The gallery focuses on new figurative practices, hosting an average of four solo exhibitions annually, alongside one curated show. Many artists have had their first solo or European solo exhibition here, with the gallery serving as both an incubator and a springboard for their careers.
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
Mirella Jaworska’s first solo exhibition presents paintings from 2026 that conjure the uncertain light of waking, when dream and reality blur. Drawing on early Renaissance masters and Japanese painting, Jaworska composes intimate tableaux populated by faces, flowers, skulls, cigarettes and studio objects, alongside recurring figures such as a jockey, a sphinx and a chair pierced by a heart. Her layered brushwork and muted palette explore memory, loss and melancholic reverie.
