This session offers personalised research support from professional librarians to help develop accurate bibliographies for exams and assignments. Librarians guide selection of authoritative sources, citation styles (APA, MLA, Chicago), database searching strategies, and reference-management techniques. Participants learn to structure references, apply citation norms consistently, evaluate sources critically, manage citations with digital tools, and streamline literature searches to enhance academic writing and citation accuracy.
Ernest Pignon-Ernest, born in 1942 in Nice, is considered one of the pioneers of street art. Through life-sized charcoal drawings pasted directly onto city walls, he creates powerful encounters between his human figures and the urban spaces they inhabit. Deeply engaged with social and political issues, his work reflects historical and contemporary struggles while maintaining a strong poetic and human presence.
Opening during the Nuit de Bains on Thursday 12 March at 18:00.
Filippo Grandi, former UN High Commissioner for Refugees, reflects on the future of humanitarian action amid protracted conflicts, mass displacement, shrinking access and shifting geopolitics. Joined in conversation by Minhua Ling, Associate Professor at the Geneva Graduate Institute, and students Suraya Yosufi and Jennifer Siaw, he examines how humanitarian principles can be upheld while adapting to new challenges. The discussion is introduced by Marie‑Laure Salles and Leo Colonnello.

May 1972 is an exhibition dedicated to Salvatore Emblema (Naples, 1929–2006), bringing together works produced between the late 1960s and the early 1980s. Across paintings, sculptures and installations, Emblema refines a conceptual language that interrogates materiality, form and temporality. The presentation highlights his experimental use of found materials, assemblage and reductive gestures, situating these works within postwar Italian avant‑garde practices and the artist’s evolving exploration of spatial and epistemic limits.
London-based artist Konstantina Krikzoni presents a body of paintings born from an intense solitary studio practice. Her work blurs painting and sculpture: textured, tactile canvases where brushwork and sculptural modelling interweave. Silent yet confrontational female figures occupy compositions in grey and yellow, evoking funerary motifs and the logic of memory and grief. ARMATURA functions as metaphor and method — an internal armature of endurance that shapes emotion into form through material exploration and sustained process.
Stefano Fiorin (Bocconi University) presents experimental research examining how visible religious identity—women’s headscarves and men’s Islamic beards—affects labor market outcomes in Indonesia. Using a large job portal and incentivized resume rating experiments with employers and job seekers, the study finds that displaying religious symbols reduces employer ratings and interview probability, with similar penalties for headscarves and beards. It also reveals employers’ biased trait assessments and job seekers’ limited awareness of these penalties.
