The stained glass collections of the Musée Ariana are coming out of storage! When the museum was bequeathed to the City of Geneva in 1890, Gustave Revilliod had acquired 118 stained glass pieces. Today, the museum boasts over 400 pieces, spanning from the 12th to the 21st century. The fifth installment of the “The Ariana Unveils Its Reserves” series showcases an exceptional selection of this heritage.
Corentin Barro, a percussionist and drummer, will deliver a musical performance inspired by the lush and vibrant world of artist António Vasconcelos Lapa and his exhibition “Extra-nature.” Join this unique event where nature and music converge for an extraordinary experience.
The Musée Ariana offers free themed tours on the first Sunday of each month. Themes include exploring the city’s stained glass at the museum, the museum’s masterpieces, and the evolution of stained glass from the 19th to the 21st century.
