Immerse yourself in 15,000 years of Geneva history, reinterpreted by New York artist Carol Bove, born in Geneva in 1971. The exhibition takes a fresh look at the MAH collection, inviting visitors to follow a timeline from regional archaeological discoveries to the most recent contemporary pieces. Presented chronologically, the works take a creative, anthropological, interactive and educational approach. Between ancient artifacts, masterpieces and everyday objects, this new Carte Blanche revisits the museum space, blurring the boundaries between art and everyday objects. An invitation to touch, feel and observe in a new way, free from convention, to redefine our relationship with art and the museum.
“Home Is Where We Start From” is a contemporary art exhibition organized by ART for The World, in collaboration with Geneva’s Department of Culture and the Museum of Art and History. Featuring works by around 30 artists with diverse migratory backgrounds, the exhibition explores themes of migration, interculturality, and resilience. Notable artists include Marina Abramović, Mona Hatoum, and Shirin Neshat. The exhibition is curated by Adelina von Fürstenberg and includes a book of interviews on the concept of “home” in the context of migration. A special event on International Women’s Day (March 8, 2025) will feature workshops, performances, screenings, and a concert celebrating women artists.
