Don’t miss out: Events running for less than two weeks
A riverside walk that lets you leave the city behind and breathe clean air while following the Rhône’s calm banks. The route traces riverbanks and gentle paths bordered by trees and open riverside meadows, offering changing views and birdsong. Walking at an easy, steady rhythm creates a shared energy and a sense of reconnection with the landscape. It’s an outdoor reset that highlights simple natural beauty close to home and the refreshing pleasure of moving together beside the water.
Ages 8 and up. Minors must be supervised by an adult.
P.A.G.E.S. brings together publishers, artists, designers and visual-communication students to showcase contemporary printed matter and graphic design. The programme features artist books, launches and editorial projects — including presentations of Agathe de Limoges’s Une clé qui n’ouvre rien and the publication Couriller Gribourir by Stanyslas Leray — alongside exhibitions (Bänziger‑Hug‑Kasper‑Florio, Spinorama), a student‑illustrated daily edition and publishing‑focused encounters. The fair foregrounds experimental formats, typographic practice and the objecthood of the book.
Antoine Piron-Meyer (Agni) presents paintings alongside archival documents and publications that trace his singular artistic trajectory. Combining realism, poetic imagery and rich imagination, his canvases evoke mythic, often Bosch-inspired narratives while archival photographs and documents illuminate his mural and public-art engagements and teaching practice.
The exhibition balances intimate studio works with documentary materials to reveal how historical references, urban interventions and pedagogical commitments shaped a multifaceted practice. Curated by his niece Anouk‑Eva Meyer, it invites reflection on artistic continuity and urban cultural history.
Performed by six dancers and accompanied by a live musician, A l’aune invites a slow choreographic promenade through the re-vegetated spaces of the Aire. The work examines ecosystems, adaptability and interdependence via intimate group interactions and material, site-conscious movement. The staging cultivates close listening between bodies and sound, producing a tactile, contemplative atmosphere that reflects cycles of growth, decay and mutual care.

Move, listen, and read together in a playful family workshop that mixes picture-book readings with dance. Children and grown-ups explore stories through sound, color and movement. Short readings spark imagination, then simple steps and playful gestures let kids try out the rhythms and shapes of the tale. Sessions are led by a dancer-choreographer and a team of reading animators who guide creative games, gentle warm-ups and shared moments of discovery.
In French. Kids ages 4 and up.
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.
Gianni Motti is a Swiss conceptual artist known for blurring the boundaries between art, politics and everyday life. Often working through interventions, performances and symbolic gestures, he inserts himself into real-world situations—from institutions to public events—to question power, authorship and the role of the artist. His provocative and often humorous works invite audiences to reconsider what art can be and where it can happen.
Opening : during the Nuit des Bains, Thursday 12 March, 18:00
Closing event : in conversation with Marc-Olivier Wahler, Tuesday 12 May, 18:00-21:00
Fertile Hybridations explores the many forms of encounters and interweavings between humans, non-humans, knowledge systems, and temporalities.
Visitors are invited to inhabit the space, to question, to connect with these artist-researchers and designers, and—like them—to attempt to engage in dialogue and move beyond anthropocentrism, the idea that humans are at the center of everything. Instead, the exhibition encourages recognizing forms of intelligence or agency in other species, and building new relationships and exchanges.
Through this evolving exhibition, enriched by the intersection of art, design, and science, HiFlow becomes a living laboratory—a space for fertile alliances…
