Exhibition "Le MAMCO de mémoire"

Fall-winter exhibition 2024
4 September - 22 December
MAMCO Genève

The exhibition MAMCO, From Memory is based on a participatory exercise, as a thousand members of the public voted for their favorite items from the collection, and the chosen works—around 500 in total—will go on display throughout the museum this fall. This exhibition can thus be viewed as a collective portrait of the museum based on public sentiment: voters were asked to choose one piece—associated perhaps with a memory, a sense of attachment, or a discovery—that, in their view, captures one aspect of MAMCO’s identity.

Our team of curators, led by Julien Fronsacq, has arranged the requested works throughout the museum, which is devoted entirely to this special exhibition.

MAMCO, From Memory also marks a new chapter in the museum’s history: it takes place in our 30th anniversary year and will be the last exhibition held at the museum’s historic premises before the building closes for renovation. During the closure, which will last for several years, the museum will run a modified program of off-site events. It will then return to its home, a former machine tool and measuring instrument factory, after it has been restructured as a public venue, renovated to international museum standards and fitted with equipment that has long been sorely lacking. So the exhibition can also be viewed as a tribute to those who dreamed up, set up, and built up the museum and its collection over the past three decades, bearing in mind that MAMCO owes its very existence to grassroots efforts to establish a home for contemporary art in Geneva.

And since next year marks our 30th anniversary, MAMCO will be offering free admission to the exhibition and running a series of public activities and events.
