Collective exhibition: What Connects Us

What Connects Us brings together Susanna Bauer, Michele Landel and Hannah Schmider in a collective exhibition that examines encounters between nature, memory and craft. Delicate crochet, embroidered photographs on reclaimed bed linens and figurative wooden sculptures form a quiet vocabulary that probes human–animal relationships and domestic ecologies. The works emphasise material histories and gesture, inviting careful looking and conversations about care, fragility and the traces left by interspecies bonds.

Opening: 10 October, 11:00 – 15:00

30 July – 31 October

Puissance 5 brings together five women artists from different generations in a dialogue between matter and spirit. Their intersecting trajectories produce works where gravity, metal, graphite and cosmic imagery become recurring motifs. The exhibition presents pieces in metal, pencil and mixed media that interweave tactile presence and poetic restraint, exploring materiality, perception and the enduring force of feminine creation across time and space.

Opening: 16 September, 16:00

3 September – 10 October

Ianne Kenfack Kitio continues her inquiry into representations of Black femininity and the construction of identity. In this photographic work, produced as a cyanotype, she treats the image as a space of transformation rather than a fixed depiction. The piece links material and concept: its blue evokes Ndop indigo textiles of the Grassfields and the artist’s Bamiléké heritage, while the cyanotype’s gradual emergence mirrors identity as an ongoing process of thresholds and metamorphosis.

Opening: 3 September, 18:00

3 September – 16 October

Photographer Bertrand Carlier presents a series of large-format portraits that foreground women working across Geneva’s agricultural landscape. The photographs depict market gardeners, winegrowers, fruit growers, livestock farmers and cellar managers in their working environments, using natural light and documentary framing.
The project explores gender, labour and continuity, revealing how women’s labour shapes rural economies and biocultural traditions. Set against the UN’s International Year of the Woman Farmer 2026, the work invites renewed attention to the diversity of skills and trajectories within contemporary Geneva agriculture.

16 September – 15 October

Xinyi Hu transforms familiar domestic objects—mirrors and tables—into evolving ceramic forms that visitors are invited to activate. Between sculpture and utility, her modular pieces recalibrate everyday gestures: looking, gathering, leaning. The works demand bodily adaptation and invent new uses, making the moment of the artwork’s emergence depend on embodied engagement. Through tactility and careful material language, Hu examines presence, relationality and the thresholds where form becomes action.

18 September – 7 November

Artist Lou Masduraud presents Skin to Skin, a recent body of work exploring the relationship between architecture, the body and the spaces we inhabit. Large copper wall panels, richly ornamented and pierced with lace-like patterns, oscillate between paintings, doors and thresholds, challenging the neutrality of the white cube. At the centre of the exhibition, Self Street transforms urban street furniture into a reflective object, blurring the boundaries between public and private space.

Through oxidation, touch and layered surfaces, Masduraud creates works that are physically responsive to the viewer, evoking the intimate relationship between clothing, architecture and the body. The exhibition considers how ornament, desire and the gaze can reshape our perception of space and our own embodied identities.

Opening: Thursday 17 September, 18:00

19 September – 29 November

Selected works from the 20th Concours international de céramique present contemporary approaches to clay across functional and sculptural practices. The exhibition gathers emerging and established makers whose pieces range from wheel-thrown vessels and hand-built forms to experimental sculptural objects and site-aware installations. Emphasis is placed on technique, surface treatment and material research, revealing diverse glazing, firing and modeling strategies. Curatorial selection highlights formal innovation and dialogue between tradition and experimentation within contemporary ceramic practice.
