Mural, exhibition & mediation

September 3 – October 5, 2025

 

Street art settles in Cologny.
September marks Cologny’s entry into the Art Valais OPEN AIR MUSEUM, the world’s largest open-air urban art museum. Organized by the Centre culturel du Manoir, the event brings public space into dialogue with contemporary art through two major interventions: a large-scale mural by Alice Izzo on the walls of the new school complex, and a group exhibition featuring Swiss artists Jasm One, Gaspard Louane, Drü Egg and Rosalie Evard.

Water, the watermark of the event, runs through these art pieces as it shapes landscapes: silently, deeply. Mural and exhibition become the two shores of the same artistic current. Lacustre invites you to let yourself be carried along – by water, to the rhythm of art.
