The “Disruptions” exhibition delves into the early days of video art in Switzerland and its European connections during the 1970s. Presented in a two-part format, it highlights how video reshaped the visual arts of that era through experimentation and innovation, encompassing performances, installations, and critiques of television. Works from the FMAC collection engage with European pieces, uncovering influences and serendipities.
“Home Is Where We Start From” is a contemporary art exhibition organized by ART for The World, in collaboration with Geneva’s Department of Culture and the Museum of Art and History. Featuring works by around 30 artists with diverse migratory backgrounds, the exhibition explores themes of migration, interculturality, and resilience. Notable artists include Marina Abramović, Mona Hatoum, and Shirin Neshat. The exhibition is curated by Adelina von Fürstenberg and includes a book of interviews on the concept of “home” in the context of migration. A special event on International Women’s Day (March 8, 2025) will feature workshops, performances, screenings, and a concert celebrating women artists.
