Carlos Schwabe

Carlos Schwabe’s retrospective traces the symbolism and pictorial imagination that defined his practice. Trained in Geneva, Schwabe is celebrated for evocative book illustrations and ambitious pictorial compositions that blend allegory, myth and musical ideas. The exhibition presents paintings, illustrations and preparatory drawings drawn from public and private Swiss and French collections, exploring technique, materiality and the spiritual and literary currents that shaped his visual language around the turn of the twentieth century.

29 January – 25 October

John M Armleder presents an interchange-based exhibition that foregrounds objects drawn from students’ suitcases. Through object-based works and subtle interventions, the show probes modes of observation, intimacy and collective memory. Personal belongings are rearranged as visual prompts that evoke histories, pedagogy and everyday cinematics. The artist’s restrained interventions invite reflection on how small domestic items circulate meanings and facilitate encounters, revealing how private narratives surface within a communal field of attention.

3 – 14 June

Ana Carolina Sargenti presents drawings, paintings and sculptural elements that examine the processes used to identify people who disappeared during Argentina’s last dictatorship.

Using charcoal portraiture, engraved layers of earth, watercolour impressions and plaster forms, her practice navigates appearance and erasure. Works range from material excavations to subtle removals of surface—charcoal portraits created by subtracting from black reserves, and landscapes shaped from layered earth—probing memory, territory, disappearance and the reconstruction of collective traces.

16 October 2025 – 30 August 2026

The MAH showcases Tonutopie, an innovative installation by German artist Hans-Walter Müller, a trailblazer in inflatable structures. This large, transparent, and habitable sphere, nestled within Vincent Lamouroux’s La Passerelle, offers a unique sensory experience. It delves into the contrasts between the fluidity of inflatable structures and the rigidity of traditional architecture, providing visitors with a fresh perspective on space.

7 May – 10 July

Yvan Salomone presents a series of recent watercolours that transform anonymous buildings and soulless industrial sites into evocative landscapes. Through delicate, velvety tones, subtle colour modulations and watery traces that suggest life, the artist elevates banal subjects and transfigures objective reality. The exhibition’s title, 2611, alludes to Salomone’s practice of assigning eleven‑letter titles composed from the alphabet, producing names that detach the work from literal description and invite poetic reading.

Opening: Thursday 7 May , 16:00

27 May – 7 June

Diane Givry presents a body of black-and-white photographs made over the past five years in medium and large formats. Portraits, nudes, plants and landscapes encounter one another through a pronounced materiality and the analogue silver grain of the photographic technique. The works explore sensual resonances between flesh and vegetation, treating fragments of bodies and skins—carnal or vegetal—as components of an integrated whole. The exhibition evokes tactility, presence and the porous boundaries between human and botanical forms.

Opening: Wednesday 27 May, 18:30

7 May – 29 June

Pierre Tal Coat’s practice is examined through his intimate dialogue with the book, presenting around forty illustrated and picture-book collaborations alongside a selection of original works. The exhibition highlights his editorial partnerships with leading publishers and encounters with poets and writers, revealing a visual language where ink, print and image engage in precise, elliptical conversations with text. Works range across periods, tracing shifts in technique, materiality and a restrained yet expressive pictorial vocabulary.
