Yvan Salomone presents a series of recent watercolours that transform anonymous buildings and soulless industrial sites into evocative landscapes. Through delicate, velvety tones, subtle colour modulations and watery traces that suggest life, the artist elevates banal subjects and transfigures objective reality. The exhibition’s title, 2611, alludes to Salomone’s practice of assigning eleven‑letter titles composed from the alphabet, producing names that detach the work from literal description and invite poetic reading.

Opening: Thursday 7 May , 16:00

An interactive exhibition that invites visitors of all ages to explore the biological clocks that govern life on Earth. Through hands-on installations, immersive displays and scientific demonstrations, the show unveils the mechanisms and rhythms of circadian, seasonal and developmental timing. Multimedia exhibits and experimental stations illustrate how organisms synchronize with their environment and why respecting these rhythms matters for ecosystem balance. Educational workshops offer practical learning for school groups and families.

9 – 27 May

Measures of Infinity brings together works by Susanna Bauer, Frankie Gao and Carol Prusa in a contemplative exhibition of drawings, installations and meticulously crafted objects. Bauer transforms fragile leaves into intricate, almost meditative compositions; Gao offers pared-back drawings and open installations that evoke cosmic structures; Prusa constructs pieces informed by scientific models and unseen phenomena. Across scale and material, the show explores perception, precision and the tension between the intimate and the vast, inviting close looking and slow attention.

The MAH showcases Tonutopie, an innovative installation by German artist Hans-Walter Müller, a trailblazer in inflatable structures. This large, transparent, and habitable sphere, nestled within Vincent Lamouroux’s La Passerelle, offers a unique sensory experience. It delves into the contrasts between the fluidity of inflatable structures and the rigidity of traditional architecture, providing visitors with a fresh perspective on space.

May 1972 is an exhibition dedicated to Salvatore Emblema (Naples, 1929–2006), bringing together works produced between the late 1960s and the early 1980s. Across paintings, sculptures and installations, Emblema refines a conceptual language that interrogates materiality, form and temporality. The presentation highlights his experimental use of found materials, assemblage and reductive gestures, situating these works within postwar Italian avant‑garde practices and the artist’s evolving exploration of spatial and epistemic limits.
