L’Arcade is the Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève’s temporary exhibition space in the Mont‑Blanc Centre. It hosts contemporary art exhibitions, experimental projects, talks and events, offering a compact, visible platform for production and public engagement. Serving as an urban window on contemporary practice, it sustains the Centre’s programme during renovation of its main building.
Presented from the private collection of Giuseppe Garrera and curated by Andrea Bellini and Giuseppe Garrera, this exhibition assembles an array of diminutive found objects — trinkets, charms, gadgets, toys, lucky charms and fragments of wood, cloth and glass — rescued from mundane life by artists’ gestures. Hovering between toy, everyday artefact and artwork, the presentation explores the thaumaturgic qualities of objects and childhood as a site of refuge and wonder.

FAAB G collective presents an exhibition centred on FLINTA* figures connected to Asia, bringing together works by Jeanne Tara, Juli Sando, Sayaka Mizuno, Camille Farrah Buhler, Anaïs Nariman Aïk, Fhunyue Gao and Li Chaolin. Through installation, photography, sculpture and mixed-media, the project interrogates dominant narratives that invisibilize or simplify identities and memories. Nourished by anticolonial and transfeminist perspectives, the show explores political, historical and intimate forms of resistance and proposes encounters between personal testimonies and collective histories.
Pauline Coquart presents Short Life Attention Span #3, an editorial-and-performative project that gathers short texts and collaborative interventions. The edition assembles autofictions, political essays, poems and hopeful reflections conceived as concise experiments. Each contribution benefits from attentive editorial support and bespoke layout; Ethan Assouline and Gaia Vincensini contribute to the book design and poster work. The project investigates the plurality of contemporary voices, treating writing as a field for poetic, political and formal experimentation.
