Allégorie sur le monde

Françoise Deladoëy assembles cut-and-paste collages combining watercolor, graphite and mixed media to probe contemporary upheavals and imagine alternative possibilities.
Using images and fragments sourced from the press, she composes visual landscapes where disparate realities collide and metamorphose. The works fuse the living and the mechanical, beauty and unease, highlighting environmental crisis, technological shifts and resource exhaustion. Collage becomes a transformative method that both records fragmentation and opens an imaginative space where new narratives, spiritual questions and other forms of coexistence might be envisioned.

Opening: 18 October, 18:00

Permanent exhibition

Objects tell stories here — about people, beliefs, traditions, and the way cultures meet. The MEG draws on collections from around the world, while also asking timely questions about where museum objects come from and how their stories should be told today.

28 August – 17 October

Anne-Marie Akplogan presents a body of paintings and mixed-media works produced during a recent residency in Paris. Focusing on legs and feet, the works probe the language of the body, the breath of the soul and the memory embedded in the foot. Through layered paint, varied textures and sculptural handling of surface, Akplogan situates intimate anatomy within sensitive, spiritual and anthropological registers, inviting reflection on movement, ritual and embodied memory.

3 October – 7 February

Jean-Étienne Liotard’s portraits of the imperial family, notably Marie‑Antoinette, include eleven drawings widely regarded as masterpieces. This project examines the identification of the sitter children and the works’ provenance through a cross-disciplinary investigation. In collaboration with the University of Oxford, the Idiap research institute and the School of Criminal Sciences at the University of Lausanne, historians of art and specialists in the eighteenth century join AI researchers and forensic experts to reveal new insights into authorship and history.

4 – 10 October

On the occasion of her first institutional solo exhibition in Geneva, Marisa Cornejo presents El Taller de la Fragilidad, bringing together new sculptures, drawings, and installations. Born in Chile and based in Switzerland, the artist draws on her experience of exile to explore the relationships between memory, displacement, absence, and repair. Several of the works have been created especially for Halle Nord, examining the forms of resilience that emerge from uprootedness. Recipient of the Fondation Francine Delacrétaz Prize (2023) and a Swiss Art Award (2024), Marisa Cornejo’s practice spans sculpture, drawing, installation, performance, and archival research.

16 September – 31 October

Antoni Tàpies presents the complete series “Variations on a Musical Theme”, twenty lithographs created in 1987. The suite reveals Tàpies’s fascination with the interplay between visual art and music: each variation establishes its own rhythm, material presence and visual language. Treated as a continuous sequence, the works unfold like a musical score, inviting an immersive reading of process, texture and symbolic gesture within the artist’s graphic practice.

30 September – 11 October

Ségolène Romier revisits her practice as a filmmaker while opening a new chapter that foregrounds drawing and material experimentation. Her films, presented across a cluster of televisions, form a living retrospective populated by characters, objects and bodies. Drawing, long confined to sculptural preparation, moves to the fore on cardboard, producing fragmented forms and a kaleidoscopic self‑portrait in which the body appears in pieces between representation and disappearance. The exhibition contemplates passage, creative continuity and the shifting modalities of image and object.

Opening: Wednesday 30 September, 18:00
Closing: Sunday 11 October, 17:00
