Bre Andy presents a new series of paintings in her first solo exhibition at the gallery. Drawing on photographs of her surroundings and her journal, she depicts intimate scenes of women and friends in domestic interiors and natural settings. The works consider inner and outer presence, the body, memory, and the ways space shapes visibility and expression. Through these personal images, Andy explores how lived environments inform relationships and self-presentation.
The exhibition is conceived as a journey—a path traced by Marianne Herjean through the Aeolian Islands, Ibiza, Brittany, and Vevey, where she resides.
Her recent works are imbued with water and botanical elements: visions of water, the Vaud Riviera, and expansive mountain vistas.
“Celle qui rêva, celle qui fut rêvée. Paysages prodigieux*” explores the landscape and the imagery created by Marianne Herjean.
Preview: 4 November, 18:00 – 21:00
Opening: During la Nuit des Bains, 12 November, 18:00 – 21:00
Artists Emma Souharce and Lauren Huret present an audiovisual window installation born from a year of collaboration and response to the large wildfires devastating forests in south‑west France and the Basque Country. Combining sound, manipulated recordings and projected imagery, the work stages feverish, delirious visions of apocalyptic birds. The sound score reworks the Basque song Txoria Txori (Hegoak) by Joxean Artze, evoking resistance and memory. Curated by Elise Lammer with institutional support. Curator: Elise Lammer. With the support of Pro Helvetia, the City of Geneva, and the Republic and Canton of Geneva.
Opening: 29 October, 18:00
Mi Mawai and Madzerokai present an immersive audiovisual installation born from a residency exchange between the Brazilian Amazon and Geneva. The work invites immersion in Baniwa cosmology through video, layered soundscapes, flutes, traditional singing and dance. Visitors are invited to lie in hammocks and on mats for contemplative encounters with projected landscapes and ritual sonic textures. The piece foregrounds ancestral knowledge, collective memory and multisensory modes of storytelling.
Geneva, before it became the Geneva we know. Set in the city’s oldest surviving private residence, Maison Tavel tells the story of local life from the Middle Ages to the 19th century. Don’t miss the impressive Magnin Relief, a huge model of Geneva before its fortifications disappeared.
Jean-Marc Yersin and Antoine Roth present two photographic projects that probe urban and natural perception.
In Cités délaissées, Yersin composes futuristic images of deserted cities where digital dematerialization, climate strain and demographic decline have hollowed out public life; the photographs evoke frozen infrastructures and virtual withdrawal. Mirages sees Roth using a long-focus digital camera along the shores of Lake Geneva to capture rare atmospheric and optical phenomena—mirages, light and reflections—questioning the materiality of landscape and how perception shapes experience.
Opening: Thursday 27 August, 18:00
Artist Carmen-Sibha Keiso presents a continuation of her exhibition, featuring new works that explore ambivalence and the bystander’s gaze. The show includes sculptural and installation pieces alongside printed editions by Fabrice Gygi, Roman Signer and Marie Sacconi. A recently published volume by Keiso accompanies the presentation, extending the exhibition’s themes into a printed, multi-voiced format. The installation work favours material contrasts and subtle gestures that probe perception, memory and relational dynamics.
Opening: Friday 23 October, 18:00
