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.

The Tender Buttons exhibition offers a multidisciplinary exploration centered on buttons, delving into their identity and historical significance. Featuring over three hundred ceramic and glass buttons, the exhibition interacts with the museum’s works to highlight their role in both formal experimentation and socio-cultural narratives.

La Cuisine des Collectionneurs is a convivial, evolving exhibition where contemporary art meets gastronomy. The project invites four collectors to curate walls from their personal collections. It blends scenography, shared collecting, and a collective display, extended into the kitchen through an ephemeral menu inspired by their worlds. Conceived as a living space, the exhibition unfolds with talks, meals, and gatherings over time, celebrating exchange, generosity, and the pleasure of art—on the walls and on the plate.

17 September – 7 March

The International Museum of the Red Cross and Red Crescent presents the first European solo exhibition of Guatemalan Maya Kaqchikel artist Angélica Serech (*1982). Pach’un Q’ijul (Temps entrelacés – Deep Time) intertwines ancestral weaving gestures with personal and collective memory, drawing on Serech’s history shaped by Guatemala’s civil war. Using self-built looms and natural materials like corn husks and branches, her works explore resilience, repair, and the deep ties between textile traditions and humanitarian action.

23 January – 30 April

London-based artist Konstantina Krikzoni presents a body of paintings born from an intense solitary studio practice. Her work blurs painting and sculpture: textured, tactile canvases where brushwork and sculptural modelling interweave. Silent yet confrontational female figures occupy compositions in grey and yellow, evoking funerary motifs and the logic of memory and grief. ARMATURA functions as metaphor and method — an internal armature of endurance that shapes emotion into form through material exploration and sustained process.
