"Espionage is no more reducible to a genre than it is to an artistic medium: always seeking to reinvent itself, it moves from literature to cinema (many of the films shown in the exhibition are adaptations of books by Ian Fleming, Graham Greene or Tom Clancy), and from design to contemporary art. The exhibition orchestrates visual proposals, playful or sometimes intentionally disturbing, of Canadian Rodney Graham, Ukrainian Boris Mikhaylov, French Julien Prévieux, Serbian Nemanja Nikolic, Lebanese Walid Raad (The Atlas Group), or the American Heather Dewey-Hagborg, who use their works of art to question cryptology, simulacra, and even brainwashing."

Within the framework of the inaugural event Train Zug Treno Tren, the exhibition organized by Photo Elysée, Crossing Lines, explores new approaches to railway history for over more than a century and a half, from the earliest train experiences in the 19th century to its uses today.
The exhibition first examines the interplay between the expansion of the railroad, the advent of the cinema and the creative endeavors of the artistic and literary avant-garde artists of the first half of the 20th century.

This exhibition is part of the new project Plateforme 10, a new district for art in Lausanne: next to the train station, two majestuous buildings and three museums create a dialogue between fine arts, photography and contemporary design.

First Biennale of Young Artists from ex-Yugoslavia, curated by Sava Stepanov

curator Milica Lapcevic

curators: Gunnarr B. Kvaran et Danielle Kvaran

At the beginning of 21^st century, despite the fact that the Western notion of contemporary art has become an universal model of reference, no single common denominator has emerged. The art world has many centres, multi-layered activities, a plurality of ideas about what art is and what it can be, and an impressive number of heterogeneous works. This Marvellous Cacophony reflects the richness of the world. It is a positive condition, creating energies that can include dissonance and even conflicting ideas and expressions. It involves the coexistence of multiple identities and permanent relational flows, conveying notions of miscellany and openness, and creating meaningful narratives about art and culture, social issues and politics.

The Marvellous Cacophony will explore worldwide artistic production, looking into diverse art scenes and different generations of living artists. It will bring together a constellation of works that express, through their forms, structures, materials, techniques, devices and content, the extraordinary richness of contemporary artistic expression.

The focus of this group exhibition is the drawing material CHALK. Artists have been asked to produce new works with blackboard chalks and there are (inter)national loans by Joseph Beuys, Rudolf Steiner, Juan Munoz and Nemanja Nikolic.

Curated by Dominique Païni, the exhibition explores the influence of the visual arts on film, and vice versa.

From Monet to David Lynch, via Chaplin, Hitchcock and Dalí. The show gathers 300 pieces by 150 artists and film-makers, including paintings, sculptures, prints and photographs, to reflect the dialogue between the avant-garde in art and the cinema of the same era. The exhibition also displays costumes, posters, models and screenings of excerpts from over 60 films.

curators : Stella Bache and Claudia Maria Luenig

Curated by David Elliott, this 56th October Salon will concentrate on what role emotion plays in contemporary art and how it may be framed in ways that are neither banal nor kitsch. This may include the not-so-simple pleasures of love, humor, horror and any other perspectives that art may bring to bear on the fragility of human experience and life which, in itself, may have a transient or long-lasting impact.

The Pleasure of Love, the 56^th October Salon, will be composed of around 60 artists from Serbia, the Balkan region and the world at large chosen directly by the Artistic Director and from an open submission.  The Salon will take place in Belgrade City Museum and in Cultural Center of Belgrade (Art gallery, Artget gallery and Podroom gallery)

An exhibition curted by Anaïs Guilet, Soline Haudouin, Aurélie Tiffreau and Stereolux. 
With the collaboration of ZKM Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe, Galerie Dix9 Hélène Lacharmoise and GALLERIA CONTINUA, San Gimignano / Beijing / Les Moulins / Habana.
