Zoe A. Keller and Batia Suter. Uqbaroxy

Zoe A. Keller and Batia Suter reactivate the Eranos Archive in a collaborative project that blends critical essay and photographic installation. Keller’s research interrogates archetypal image systems and proposes the concept of the “anarchetype” to unsettle fixed classifications, while Suter juxtaposes historical Eranos images with contemporary-period photographs. Together they examine ideological contradictions and heterogeneous visual encounters of the interwar archive, opening a fictional conceptual field that foregrounds the archive’s historical vulnerability and the politics of visual classification.

Uqbaroxy

Art & Exhibits

Espace Ami Lullin

Zoe A. Keller and Batia Suter present a collaborative project that reframes the Eranos archives—about 3,000 archetypal images compiled by Olga Fröbe-Kapteyn and held at the Warburg Institute—as material for critical and photographic inquiry.
Taking the form of a critical essay and a photographic installation, the work questions and re-signifies these images, confronting their entanglement with universalist and violent ideologies. The artists propose the notion of the ‘anarchétype’ to reveal archetypal figures as unstable cultural constellations.

Inherited Times (Temps Hérités)

Art & Exhibits

Halle Nord

Presenting works by Julien Fournival, Théa Giglio and Chaolin Li, this exhibition draws on acts of recovery, diasporic narratives and ambiguous forms. Through found materials, sculptural interventions and time-based compositions, the project probes disjointed temporalities where memory and disappearance coexist. The artists intertwine material histories and personal fragments to question how objects and gestures carry traces across loss and migration.

Guided tours in French.

Enfantillages et bizarreries : vertige d’une collection

Art & Exhibits

An intimate assemblage presents a constellation of small objects—toys, trinkets, charms, perfume bottles, stamps, pencils and marbles—where everyday artifacts hover between plaything and artwork.
Featuring objects by Sol LeWitt, Yoko Ono, Jenny Holzer and Takako Saito, the exhibition traces a collector’s obsessive impulses and imaginative logic.
Through found objects and miniature compositions, it explores childhood as refuge, the thaumaturgic charge of objects, and how desire and loss shape the poetic economy of collecting.
