Mirages

Free

Etienne Francey and Onoko present a collaborative exhibition exploring the mirage as visual and psychological phenomenon. Francey’s photographic practice treats landscapes as memory, rendering familiar scenes with a soft, recollected quality. Onoko contributes more abstract works that distill atmosphere and luminous degradation into colour fields and ephemeral surfaces. Together their pieces interrogate perception, illusion, and the shifting boundary between apparition and documentation, using photography, colour studies and light to destabilize what the eye assumes to know.

Observatories — Carte blanche to John M Armleder

Art & Exhibits

MAH

John M Armleder presents an interchange-based exhibition that foregrounds objects drawn from students’ suitcases. Through object-based works and subtle interventions, the show probes modes of observation, intimacy and collective memory. Personal belongings are rearranged as visual prompts that evoke histories, pedagogy and everyday cinematics. The artist’s restrained interventions invite reflection on how small domestic items circulate meanings and facilitate encounters, revealing how private narratives surface within a communal field of attention.

Industry in a Thousand Points

Art & Exhibits

Quartier Libre SIG

Genevan artist Gérald Grosjean presents a focused series of paintings and handcrafted maquettes that examine industrial and railway landscapes. The show gathers twenty-seven canvases and three models made from reclaimed materials, emphasising a pointillist approach to structures such as stations, bridges, dams, factories and viaducts. Through meticulous dots and assembled found objects, Grosjean explores the aesthetic presence and collective memory of infrastructure, inviting reflection on material reuse and the visual poetry of engineered landscapes.

Quand le vivant nous fait agir

Art & Exhibits Cool Stuff

HiFlow

HiFlow launches Quand le vivant nous fait agir, a year-long programme that explores how living systems can inspire new ways of thinking and acting. Bringing together artists, researchers, designers, entrepreneurs and thinkers, HiFlow becomes a space for experimentation and dialogue around more sensitive and sustainable futures. The first chapter, “Hybridations fertiles”, transforms the venue into a living laboratory through a collective exhibition, off-site projects, conferences, performances and workshops at the crossroads of art, design, life sciences and hybrid technologies.

PlasMAH: Flesh and the Siphon

Art & Exhibits

MAH

Artists Daniel Dewar and Grégory Gicquel present a large-scale installation conceived as a traversable architecture that reconfigures the museum courtyard into a mutable living environment. Seven works dialog with sculpture, and two pieces were created specifically to engage the lapidary collection and the Pierre-aux-Dames megalith. Using carved stone surfaces, constructed siphons and modular plaster and resin elements, the project explores material metamorphosis, bodily presence and the shifting relations between monumentality and domestic scale.

Opening: Thursday 16 July, 18:30

Hiwirhi Ipaattoni — Boîte d’Étoiles

Art & Exhibits

MEG

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.

Clock – Clocks of Life

Art & Exhibits

Berges de Vessy

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.
