A Different Measure of Time: Pablo Benzo

Pablo Benzo presents his first solo exhibition at the gallery, bringing together paintings that probe the fluid boundaries between interior and exterior, figure and landscape, memory and perception. Shifting perspectives and familiar subjects unfold across different scales of time. For Benzo, painting becomes a temporal and perceptual investigation, attentive to how images are experienced and remembered. In this work, stillness is not the absence of change, but movement apprehended according to another measure of time.

Presented by the Interfaith Platform of Geneva, this exhibition traces ten major rivers across the world through geography, beliefs, traditions, biodiversity, and natural resources. Rather than a purely documentary survey, it reveals rivers as living environments where cultural memory, ecological interdependence, and spiritual meaning converge. The exhibition invites viewers to reflect on the beauty and fragility of these ecosystems, and on the many ways human communities have understood and inhabited river landscapes.

Conceived by artist Pauline Coquart, Short Ass Attention Span #3 mixes literary experiment and live performance, assembling texts that range from apocalyptic sketches to risqué autofiction and political essays on sexuality. Editors and collaborators Ethan Assouline and Gaia Vincensini shaped the selection and the edition’s visual identity, while attentive editorial direction and inventive layout treat writing as performative material. The project foregrounds plural contemporary voices, shifting between intimate confession, sharp aphorism and sprawling narrative to create a charged, porous atmosphere.

An extensive survey assembled from a long-standing research collection devoted to glass, this exhibition takes a contemporary look at a millennia-old material. Over two hundred glass and mixed-media works, including sculptural objects, design pieces and installations, testify to a transdisciplinary experimental spirit. Featuring artists such as Ettore Sottsass, Pierre Charpin, Betty Woodman, Bob Wilson, Giuseppe Penone, Jana Sterbak and James Lee Byars, the show examines materiality, technique and the porous boundaries between craft, design and contemporary art.

Opening : Thursday 23 April, 18:00

28 October – 8 November

Lola Jay investigates memory, imagery and the ways we reconstruct our past. Working at the intersection of painting and visual culture, she produces oil paintings and painted-objects that reinterpret family photographs, film stills and found images. Her compositions borrow photographic framing to isolate gestures and everyday fragments, questioning how selection, framing and repetition transform recollection. The exhibition examines the porous boundary between intimate and collective memory, showing how images do not merely preserve the past but reshape and remake it. Lola Jay is based in Geneva.

Opening : 28 October, 18:00
Closing : 8 October, 17:00

22 September – 30 August

Border Forensics presents an audiovisual exhibition of investigative films documenting violence at borders.
Excerpts from three films, The Death of Blessing Matthew (2022), The Death of Roger Nzoy Wilhelm (2025) and Asymmetric Visions (2023), combine documentary footage with geospatial analysis, data visualization and 3D modeling. The works reconstruct contested events, interrogate aerial surveillance and Mediterranean migration control, and foreground communities affected by border violence. The project examines how images and data can document abuses, challenge official narratives and advance claims for mobility justice.

Opening: September 22, 18h30 – speeches, performance, drinks.
