Located in a large park, the Villa Bernasconi was built in 1828 and was donated by the family in the 1990s to the city of Lancy. Today it serves as a cultural/ art space, where four to five exhibits of contemporary and graphic art are hosted anually. The venue extends its cultural offerings by hosting diverse events such as performances, talks, lectures, concerts, and engaging workshops for children.
Delphine Reist and Laurent Faulon transform Villa Bernasconi with an immersive exhibition that returns each room to its original function. Through object-based artworks, automatons, accumulations, and scale shifts, they craft an atmosphere of eeriness and unease. Faulon converts the villa into an ambiguous space, while Reist examines alienating work practices. Their works engage in a dialogue on private, social, and political themes. The exhibition is accompanied by a variety of events, including tours, performances, readings, lectures, and workshops for children.
Led by artist Rachel Maisonneuve, participants step into the roles of journalists to produce humorous and spooky audio segments, exploring a family home where objects come to life.
