Dance First Think Later

Dance First Think Later brings together choreographers, performers, visual artists and videographers to investigate convergences between dance, performance and moving image. The exhibition combines installations, video works, sculptures, drawings, scores and archival materials alongside durational performances.
Through embodied gestures and staged movement, the programme examines how bodies register history, politics, migration, gender, urban space, ecology and technology. Curated by O. Kaeser, the project foregrounds relational practices that reveal and question the choreographies shaping social and spatial life.

Humanitarian, by Design? explores the often-overlooked role of design in humanitarian action, from objects and emergency shelters to maps, images and digital technologies. Bringing together nearly 200 objects—most presented to the public for the first time—the exhibition examines how design shapes the way crises are experienced, managed and represented. Across three perspectives—objects, spaces and imaginaries—it reveals both the creative potential and the tensions embedded in humanitarian design. A multidisciplinary exhibition that questions how design can support care, dignity and resilience in times of crisis.

Curated by Leticia Maciel, Flora Incognita brings together works by David Elia, Marius Margot, Vivianne van Singer, Heberth Sobral and Vasilis Zografos to explore unclassified plant worlds as a metaphor for artistic practices that resist fixed categories. Ceramics form a central thread: clay appears as a material of memory and transformation in Sobral’s, Zografos’s and Elia’s work. Elia’s cyanotypes probe botanical archives and classification systems, van Singer investigates colour and perception, and Margot proposes speculative vegetal ecologies where nature and fiction converge.

Antoine Roth presents a photography exhibition focused on atmospheric and optical phenomena observed over Lake Geneva. Working with a digital camera and a long‑focal lens, he photographs distant horizons where light, water and air converge. The series documents rare mirages, notably the Fata Morgana, exploring the boundary between perceptual illusion and measurable physical event. Through patient field observation and precise framing, Roth examines how light and thermal gradients sculpt landscape appearances and challenge our sense of materiality.

Permanent exhibition

Calvin, Geneva, and a movement that reshaped Europe. Just steps from St Peter’s Cathedral, the MIR traces the Reformation through paintings, manuscripts, rare books, objects and multimedia — turning a complex chapter of religious and political history into an accessible visit.

Permanent exhibition

Two thousand years, one site. Opened in September 2026, Geneva’s newest archaeological space brings together a Roman dwelling, a medieval cemetery and a church, and 16th-century fortifications. Archaeology meets contemporary architecture — with temporary art projects adding another layer to the story.
