A Fragile Balance by Elisa Rusca et Pascal Hufschmid
Description
This exhibition, which is the centrepiece of the Museum’s Year of Mental Health (2022–2023), features large-scale installations by three contemporary Swiss artists – Denise Bertschi (Aargau), Nicolas Cilins (Geneva) and Nina Haab (Ticino) – along with Geometric lines for horizons, a sculpture by Olafur Eliasson. Together, these pieces create a subtle, welcoming space for reflection.
A FRAGILE BALANCE underscores the role of art as a powerful vehicle for caring for oneself and for others. The exhibits are not there to be contemplated. Rather, they offer an immersive experience that invites us to let go and feel fully present in the moment – to pause and reflect on our own limits and vulnerabilities, in all their diversity and complexity, and to take a moment to practise self-care.
