The exhibition La Maison est là où tout commence, hosted at Geneva’s Maison Tavel, features works by 26 women artists exploring the theme of migration not only as trauma, but as transformation through cultural fusion. The concept of “home” — remembered, lost, or reinvented — is central, with artworks made from symbolic materials like glass, porcelain, and textiles. Among the artists, Marina Abramović stands out for her radical exploration of identity, body, and belonging. Her participation elevates the exhibition’s message, connecting the deeply personal to the universally political. Abramović, known for her performance-based work, embodies the displacement and resilience that define the migrant experience. The show combines irony, memory, and dreamlike visions to reflect on how migration reshapes art and life. Curated by Adelina von Fürstenberg, it celebrates women’s voices and cultural hybridity.

"Deep Beauty" is a photography exhibition curated by Denis Curti, conceived by Ogilvy Italia's creative team under the artistic direction of Giuseppe Mastromatteo, and supported by KIKO Milano. It's held in collaboration with MUDEC, the City of Milan, and 24 ORE Cultura, with special graphic contributions by artist Paolo Ventura. The show features over 60 masterpieces by renowned artists such as Marina Abramović, David Hockney, Michel Comte, David LaChapelle, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Helmut Newton, and Robert Mapplethorpe. It explores the evolution of beauty through visual arts—from photography and video art to the use of AI. Organized into six thematic sections—Transfigurations, Enchantments, Vertigos, Labyrinths, New Worlds, and Artifices—the exhibition reflects on the changing meanings of beauty from the early 20th century to today. Thanks to contributions from key collectors, the project fosters a dialogue between aesthetics and the city’s social and economic fabric. A virtual immersive version of the exhibit, developed with AQuest, will also be available online, offering an interactive experience with additional content via QR codes.

'Typologien' is an extensive survey dedicated to 20th century German photography. The project, hosted in the Podium, the central space of the Milan venue, is curated by Susanne Pfeffer, art historian and director of the MUSEUM MMK FÜR MODERNE KUNST in Frankfurt. The project applies the principle of ‘typology’, born in the 17th and 18th centuries in botany to classify and study plants, developed by photography from the beginning of the 20th century and established in German photography during the 20th century. Paradoxically, the proposed formal principle makes it possible to establish unexpected analogies between German artists of different generations and at the same time reveal individual approaches to photography.
