Xippas Geneva presents “Echoes and Fields”, a collective exhibition which brings together a selection of works by the gallery artists whose practices explore the porous edges between image and sensation, matter and memory. Through painting, sculpture, installation and fleeting gestures, the exhibition unfolds as a landscape of fragments—organic, intuitive, at times dissonant—where form becomes field and echo. As Geneva settles into its slowest season, the show embraces slowness as a way of seeing, and the group exhibition as a mode of resonance.
Opening on Thursday July 10, from 18:00 to 21:00 on the occasion of the Nuit des Bains.
International artist Iris Leroyer presents OPUS CARBONE, a groundbreaking exhibition that examines the impact of human activity on living organisms. Through charcoal sculptures, paintings made from carbon-based natural materials, and installations, the work engages the public with the current ecological crisis, prompting reflection on environmental issues and our relationship with nature.
Every month, the Botanical Garden showcases a treasure from its collections through an audio commentary, accessible both at the library and on social media. These gems, which include engravings, rare books, objects, or archival letters, are enriched with insights from a librarian or archivist.
A group exhibition delves into the complex and paradoxical relationship between humans and plants. Acting as indicators of climate change, pharmaceutical resources, or fashion items, plants are laden with diverse cultural meanings. Through documentary, speculative, or experimental works, the artists investigate the status of plants—whether decorative, invasive, or medicinal. The exhibition unravels the myriad representations and values of plants in today’s society, featuring contributions from various artists and institutions like the Conservatory and Botanical Garden of Geneva.
In Together Separated, Rebecca Brodskis explores the delicate tension between intimacy and isolation in a hyperconnected yet emotionally distant world. Her stylized figures, caught in quiet moments of waiting or withdrawal, reveal the paradox of being together yet apart—physically close, but psychically distant. With subtle tones and suspended gestures, Brodskis paints a haunting portrait of modern disconnection, especially as it shapes women’s inner lives.
