The exhibition “More Poetry is Needed” unites four artists who use text as both poetic and visual material: Laure Marville, Hadrien Dussoix, Robert Montgomery, and Peter Wüthrich. It conveys an urgent call for poetry. Laure Marville’s vibrant works bring the voices of Corinna Bille and Alice Rivaz to life as flags, while Hadrien Dussoix channels the spirit of rock. Robert Montgomery captures the committed poetry of the post-modern era and Peter Wüthrich illustrates how literature can serve as an antidote. In Geneva, Wüthrich engages with passersby by photographing them with an open book on their back, continuing his series “Angels of the World.”
“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.
