Roméo Mivekannin

Free

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.

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

Live Language Model

Art & Exhibits

Centre d'édition contemporaine

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.

Narrating Death – Exhibition

Art & Exhibits

Jardin botanique

An itinerant exhibition conceived by researchers from the Haute école de travail social et de la santé Lausanne (HETSL | HES-SO) in collaboration with artist Virginie Rebetez. The project brings together six audio narratives presented as podcasts and twelve photographs to explore questions of end of life, memory, funeral rites, transmission, mourning and remembrance. Through intimate soundscapes and photographic tableaux, the work prompts reflection on our relationship to the living, biodiversity, funerary landscapes and the disappearance of non-human life.

Guided tour: Sunday 27 September, 13:30

Collective listening session of a podcast episode, followed by a discussion with Veronica Pagnamenta and Marc-Antoine Berthod (HETSL | HES-SO) : Sunday 27 September, 15:00.

Amélie Patry – Kaseki No Nioi / L’Odeur des Fossiles

Art & Exhibits

Le Salon Vert

Amélie Patry presents a body of ceramic work rooted in the landscapes of the Loire Valley. Through long walks she collects soils, stones and vegetal matter which she incorporates directly into her vessels. Her process—digging, carrying and shaping—follows a slow attentiveness to material transformation. Fired in the kiln, these gathered elements yield irregular surfaces and textured skins that suggest mineral reliefs and fossil fragments, connecting body, landscape and layered temporalities.

Gregory Bourrilly – Écho

Art & Exhibits

Wilde

Geneva based artist Gregory Bourrilly presents seven sculptures and a photograph that reconsider human-centered narratives in favor of ecological processes. Since 2018 his practice explores living dynamics and natural phenomena, imagining a posthuman world where human culture gradually yields to vegetal and animal recolonization. The works combine sculptural forms and photographic framing to evoke material transformation, decay and emergence, proposing alternative imaginaries of coexistence beyond anthropocentrism.

Marisa Cornejo: El Taller de la Fragilidad

Art & Exhibits

Halle Nord

On the occasion of her first institutional solo exhibition in Geneva, Marisa Cornejo presents El Taller de la Fragilidad, bringing together new sculptures, drawings, and installations. Born in Chile and based in Switzerland, the artist draws on her experience of exile to explore the relationships between memory, displacement, absence, and repair. Several of the works have been created especially for Halle Nord, examining the forms of resilience that emerge from uprootedness. Recipient of the Fondation Francine Delacrétaz Prize (2023) and a Swiss Art Award (2024), Marisa Cornejo’s practice spans sculpture, drawing, installation, performance, and archival research.

Opening: 3 September, 18:00
Guided tour: 11 September, 18:00
Reading by Pedro Jimenéz Morrás: 11 September, 18:30
