Mattania Bösiger: Reflecting_stream

For this exhibition, Bösiger presents a new body of paintings that navigates the continuous flow of digital information, extracting fragments of images, familiar objects, and fleeting scenes from an otherwise overwhelming stream of visual content. Removed from their original contexts, these elements become suspended in time, acquiring a new presence and inviting us to question their origins, authenticity, and emotional resonance.

Reflection plays a central role in this process, both as a visual device and as a metaphor. Environments emerge indirectly, revealed through mirrored surfaces and fragmented perspectives. What appears familiar becomes uncertain; what seems tangible may be entirely imagined. Bösiger constructs spaces in which reality and representation overlap, reminding us that memory itself is never a faithful reproduction of the past, but an ongoing act of reconstruction.

Opening: Thursday 12 November, 18:00 (Nuit des Bains)

Permanent exhibition

There’s another Geneva beneath the Old Town. Descend under St Peter’s Cathedral to walk through more than 2,000 years of history, from pre-Christian remains to the city’s earliest churches. It’s one of those places you can walk past a hundred times without guessing what lies beneath.

5 September – 15 November

Joana Hadjithomas and Khalil Joreige present a site-specific project that juxtaposes archaeology, image and temporality. The presentation brings together works such as Palimpsests, Time Capsules and Trilogies, ranging from installations to photographic and film-based pieces. Working with archaeologists and adopting geological methods, the artists probe subterranean messages, historical ruptures and continuities, and the human and climatic forces that shape possible narratives. The exhibition foregrounds layered temporality and the politics of memory.

16 September – 14 November

Live Language Model brings together a collective exhibition that unfolds across successive sequences, presenting works and critical reflections on attention at the intersection of language and presence. The programme features performance-based pieces by the duo Calling the Operator (Axelle Stiefel and Octave Magescas) alongside new editions and sculptural installations by Thomas Hirschhorn and Olivier Mosset. Through typographic interventions, printed matter, performance and austere minimal forms, the project interrogates how language conditions perception and the social life of objects.

30 October – 5 December

Swiss artist Caroline Schattling Villeval presents two video works that imperfectly replay and displace recognisable cultural gestures. One figure attempts Britney Spears’ ‘Baby One More Time’ in sign language, while another reconstructs Pipilotti Rist’s ‘Ever Is Over All’ within a digital environment. The installation probes the legibility of images, questions hearing and what remains inaccessible to the senses, and enlists the viewer in an experience of partial perception. Curator: Elise Lammer.

Opening: 29 October, 18:00

6 May – 10 January

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.

27 October – 28 February

An unprecedented exhibition traces the mask’s presence across continents and eras through 84 historical masks and contemporary creations. The displays juxtapose objects from Africa, Asia, Europe, Oceania and the Americas without geographical or chronological order, inviting reflection on the universal need to mask. Themes range from ritual, theatre and carnival to cinema, sport and contemporary art, addressing questions of identity, memory and protection through sculptural form, material practices and performative context.

Opening: Tuesday 27 October, 18:00
