Swiss artist Grégory Sugnaux presents a body of paintings that stage ambiguous, often hybrid figures—part human, part animal, serial androids and distorted, sometimes monstrous bodies. Combining grotesque allusion with ironic self-reflection, he mixes genres and pictorial techniques to render surfaces alternately smooth and vibrating, fracturing legibility.
A composed soundtrack threads through the installation, amplifying the exhibition’s uneasy pulsation. The works negotiate a fragile balance between fascination and self-critique, revealing vulnerability beneath playful, unsettling imagery.

22 January – 7 March

Valse Velue brings together Jessy Razafimandimby and Cathy Josefowitz in a cross-generational dialogue that juxtaposes performative practice with a body of studio-based works. The presentation combines live and time-based actions with constructed objects and window-front pieces by Tito Honegger and Nicolas Ponce. Through movement, improvisation and attentive materiality, the exhibition interrogates presence, memory and the afterlives of artistic gestures. Curatorial framing highlights exchange, contingency and how ephemeral performances resonate alongside durable artifacts.

Opening Thursday 22 January, from 18:00.
