Traces of Presence: Group Exhibition

Traces of Presence gathers artists whose practices examine what remains beyond immediate visibility. Through painting, photography, abstraction and material transformation, the show explores presence as memory carried through matter, process and perception. Roxana Bergt reworks still-life into vessels of memory and resilience; José Yaruro reinterprets classical forms; Marie Deforche paints quiet moments of solitude. Luca Mancone repurposes receipts and thermal paper; Eilena Braye converts microscopic structures into vivid abstraction; Justyna Maria Porowska and Didier Van der Borght negotiate geometry, surface and imagined silhouettes.

Opening: Thursday 11 June, 18:00-20:00

3 July – 5 September

Chris Lovasoa Kauffmann presents a new body of work that explores architectural form and symbolic resonance through sculpture, painting and installation. Minimal geometries and textured surfaces negotiate scale and monumentality, while layered materials and subtle color shifts invite reflection on construction, memory and cultural lineage. The works balance rigorous formalism with tactile evidence of process, proposing an austere yet intimate meditation on how built forms shape perception and collective narratives.

Opening: Thursday 2 July, 18:00

3 July – 5 September

Intermezzo, Part 1 & 2 brings together works by Vincent Fournier, Franz Gertsch, Fabrice Gygi, Thomas Huber, Pierre Schwerzmann and Franz Erhard Walther. The group show stages a dialogue between photographic practice, painting and sculptural or performative interventions, highlighting contrasts of scale, materiality and pictorial space. Through composed images, painted surfaces and tactile objects, the exhibition considers modes of representation and the viewer’s bodily relation to works, encouraging slow looking and attentive spatial experience.

28 May – 17 July

Eleven Brazilian artists spanning the twentieth and twenty-first centuries engage in a group exhibition that examines how form is inhabited by belief systems, memory, ritual and everyday experience. Through painting, sculpture and assemblage, the works trace dialogues between modern and contemporary practices shaped by Afro‑Brazilian religions, Indigenous cosmologies and vernacular knowledge. Materials range from painted canvases and carved works to found objects and textile interventions, revealing layered narratives of lineage, syncretism and embodied memory.

28 May – 10 September

Crossings brings together Swiss artist Maria Ceppi and Japanese artist Tami Ichino in a poetic dialogue exploring memory, transformation, and the hidden resonance of everyday forms. Through sculpture, painting, and assemblage, the artists reinterpret familiar materials and natural elements into evocative compositions that move between abstraction and recognition. Blending intuition, symbolism, and material experimentation, the exhibition creates immersive spaces where personal narratives intersect with broader reflections on nature, coexistence, perception, and the shifting relationship between humanity and the world around us. Hosted by GOWEN Contemporary, Crossings invites viewers into a contemplative journey where objects, landscapes, and emotions continuously evolve across forms, meanings, and states of being.

25 June – 2 August

Winning photographers of the Giga Photo Award 2026 examine what connection means when infrastructures are fragile or unevenly distributed.
Through documentary and reportage photography, the series traces stories of connection under pressure: youth-led digital movements in Kenya, improvised rooftop newsrooms in Sudan, remote classrooms in Ukraine and prison cells in Argentina where phones sustain family ties. The works reveal connectivity as both lifeline and point of tension, questioning who can connect, when, and at what cost.

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.
