Greatest Hits / EUPHORIASLASHMELANCHOLIA image

We look forward to seeing you and kicking off our new season with a double exhibition featuring two artists from different generations, both closely connected to Lausanne and actively involved in the cultural scene.

Stefania Carlotti combines sculpture, video, and animation with an ironic perspective on her environment. She intertwines references to cinema and pop culture with a sharp critique of the subtle perversions of our time. In parallel, Delphine Coindet, a major artistic figure, develops a sculptural vocabulary through exhibition devices conceived as open stage sets, collages, and assemblages of heterogeneous materials and techniques. Her works are in constant dialogue with architecture and design, exploring various intimate or political narratives.

On the occasion of the opening, an outdoor stage will host two performances: one by Duna György and Niki Loroch, and another by mema, as well as a reading by Maria Esteves.

We look forward to welcoming you to discover these varied and daring proposals!
