Home is Where We Start From

“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.

Class photos are a true social ritual and remain one of the few printed images that today’s children still get to keep and reflect on. Alongside early writing works and creative activities, the class photo becomes a valuable record of a school journey. Often signed by classmates on the back, it is a cherished memento for some, though disliked by others.

This exhibition explores the evolution of class photos in Carouge, from the early 20th century to its end, highlighting significant changes—shifting from stiff poses to more relaxed, humorous, and playful expressions.

Guided tours, lectures and workshops will be part of this exhibition.

Over ten days, it presents concerts, performances, installations, and discussions, showcasing both emerging and renowned artists. More than just a festival, Archipel is a space for dialogue where music becomes a political act and an exploration of the unknown. With carefully designed spaces and a unique listening salon, it offers a sensory immersion that celebrates sonic diversity and innovation.
