Antônia Dias investigates snakes through painting, sculpture and installation, exploring their vivid colours, geometric patterns and segmented forms. By linking aesthetic sensibility, biological observation and symbolic narrative, her work stages a tension between eroticism and metamorphosis. The exhibition assembles tactile materials and painted surfaces to create a destabilising perceptual field where colour, texture and form converge. Viewers are invited to linger within layered visual sequences that blur figurative and fabulatory registers.

Inhabited: Eleven Brazilian Artists

Art & Exhibits

L'Appartement

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.

Elise van den Brand: L’Objet d’Autrui (The Object of the Other)

Art & Exhibits

Chong Gallery

Painter Elise van den Brand examines figurative painting and the dynamics of the gaze in a new body of work. Through cropped portraits and fragmentary compositions she interrogates the tension between how subjects intend to be seen and how viewers project narratives onto images. The exhibition draws on Sartre’s notion of le regard, explores social armour as protective presentation, and probes the instability that emerges when contextual markers are removed, exposing ambiguous subjectivities.

Geneva cafés: life itself

Art & Exhibits

Bibliothèque de Genève

Dany Gignoux (photographer) and poet Georges Haldas present a compelling dialogue between documentary photography and lyrical prose. The exhibition brings together photographs and written fragments that register everyday life in Geneva’s cafés, combining on-the-spot reportage with memory-infused “prose inspirée.” Through intimate black-and-white images and spare, evocative texts the works transfigure mundane scenes into poetic testimony, revealing social undercurrents and human tenderness. Archival materials frame this historic encounter between two generations of cultural chroniclers.
