Luca Rizzo: Lucioles

Free

Luca Rizzo presents À la lumière des lucioles, a celebration inspired by village festas of Puglia. Conceived as a procession from the village square to the communal table, the installation comprises ceramics, textiles and glass that punctuate the route like points of light. Some works evoke family memory, ritual objects and the arts of the table, using artisanal techniques and narrative fragments to explore how made objects transmit stories, shape belonging and construct forms of identity.

Opening: 18 November, 18:30

Antoni Tàpies – Variations on a Musical Theme

Art & Exhibits

L'Exemplaire

Antoni Tàpies presents the complete series “Variations on a Musical Theme”, twenty lithographs created in 1987. The suite reveals Tàpies’s fascination with the interplay between visual art and music: each variation establishes its own rhythm, material presence and visual language. Treated as a continuous sequence, the works unfold like a musical score, inviting an immersive reading of process, texture and symbolic gesture within the artist’s graphic practice.

Roméo Mivekannin

Art & Exhibits

Gowen Contemporary

Beninese-born artist Roméo Mivekannin presents a series of paintings that investigate intimacy, memory and cultural identity. Working predominantly in acrylic on canvas, his canvases combine figurative portraiture with bold colour fields and textured surfaces. Works such as Anna in Red Kimono (2024) demonstrate a careful attention to costume, gesture and materiality, negotiating personal narrative and broader diasporic histories. The exhibition emphasises painterly craft and the tensions between representation and abstraction.

The Tatiana Zoubov Collection

Art & Exhibits

Fondation Zoubov

More a time capsule than a traditional museum. Step into Countess Zoubov’s elegant 18th-century world, where furniture, paintings, porcelain, and decorative arts remain arranged much as she intended in the 1950s. Among the 525 recorded pieces are numerous objects connected to Catherine II’s Russia.

New Realism: A Poetic Recycling of Urban Reality

Art & Exhibits

Galerie Sonia Zannettacci

Le Nouveau Réalisme brings together works by Arman, César, Christo, François Dufrêne, Yves Klein, Niki de Saint Phalle, Mimmo Rotella, Daniel Spoerri, Jean Tinguely and Jacques Villeglé to examine the movement’s poetic reworking of urban detritus. The exhibition presents sculptures, assemblages, collages and interventions that displace found objects from everyday contexts, juxtaposing industrial materials, advertising fragments and ready‑mades. Through material play and détournement, the show explores urban consumption, collective memory and the politics of visibility.

Opening (Geneva Art Week): Wednesday 16 September, 16:00

Art & History Through the Ages

Art & Exhibits

MAH

One museum, centuries of stories. Geneva’s largest museum brings archaeology, fine arts, and decorative arts under one roof, moving from ancient civilisations to major European and Swiss artists. A classic for a reason — and big enough to warrant more than one visit.
