Physis: Ernst Gamperl & Shunshun

Free

Physis presents a two-person dialogue between sculptor Ernst Gamperl and the drawing practice of Shunshun. Gamperl’s internationally recognised sculptures, rooted in exceptional woodwork, explore growth, material presence and a generative life force. Shunshun’s delicate, layered line drawings shift from architectural training to intimate studies of spatial depth and quiet emotional resonance. Together the works consider intergenerational perspectives on form, technique and the elemental meanings of nature.

Secrets and Mountains

Art & Exhibits

Fabienne Levy Gallery

Carlo D’Anselmi presents paintings that emerge from imagination, assembling figures, animals and landscapes into dreamlike compositions defined by colour, textured surfaces and a quietly emotive atmosphere. The exhibition considers painting as a silent language that unfolds through attention, light and time, while mountains assert themselves through scale and presence. Developed during the artist’s first stay in Switzerland overlooking the French Alps, the works respond to shifting rhythms and seasonal transformations in the landscape.

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.

Sequences of Time

Art & Exhibits

Gowen Contemporary

Vladimir Kartashov presents site-specific installations that unfold across historic island spaces, exploring temporal sequences and memory. Through sculptural interventions, architectural adaptations and subtle interventions in sacred interiors, the artist stages a choreography of objects and light that reconfigures perception of place and time. The series juxtaposes material rigor with ephemeral gestures, inviting reflection on duration, ritual and the layered histories embedded in built environments.

Opening: Friday 8 May, 19:30

Mosaïques

Art & Exhibits

Villa Dutoit

Three artists—Adriana Passini, Frédérique Haessig and Érica Mugny—present a collective exhibition that traces a dialogue between poetry and the natural world. Passini’s delicate engravings, Haessig’s carved stone sculptures and Mugny’s mixed-media paintings explore gesture, texture and material memory. The show foregrounds traditional print and sculptural techniques alongside painterly surfaces, and references several illustrated volumes produced in collaboration with the artists, offering a thoughtful encounter with form and narrative.

Opening: Friday 5 June, 18:30

Le Palais des Tressaillements

Art & Exhibits

Le Commun

Le Palais des Tressaillements brings together a group of contemporary artists who examine the legacy and circulation of images. Through photography, installation, mixed media and archival practices, the exhibition investigates how visual cultures shape identities, memory and collective narratives. Works by Yvan Alvarez, Tim Bruggeman, Aline d’Auria, Lina Geoushy, Mårten Lange, Magdalena Wysocka and others propose strategies of appropriation, re-signification and poetic reassembly to resist dominant representations and to imagine alternative filiations.

Opening: Tuesday 9 June, 18:00 and guided tour with the artists (in French and English)

Salvatore Emblema – May 1972

Art & Exhibits

SOMA

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.
