The exhibition at Villa Dutoit features paintings by artist Agram that delve into the theme of inheritance, blending past and present. With warriors frozen in time and dancers suspended mid-air, each piece connects different eras by exploring transmission as a tension between disappearance and reemergence. From Geneva to Prague, Agram reimagines myths and landscapes where medieval and contemporary influences coexist in a vibrant, dynamic form. Transmission plays out as a series of echoes and breaks, where renewal never completely erases the past.
