Fragments & Absences | Grand Palais, Bern

Fragments & Absences reunites artworks from the exhibition Exotic? Switzerland Looking Outward in the Age of Enlightenment, which opened one year ago at the Palais de Rumine in Lausanne and presented research carried out at the University of Bern. The exhibition, curated by Noémie Etienne, Claire Brizon, Chonja Lee, and Etienne Wismer (Institute of Art History, University of Bern), gathered 150 historical objects to tell stories of Swiss people who traveled outside Europe in the 18th century and engaged in various activities: collecting, sketching, writing, and producing imitation porcelain, lacquer, and printed cottons. The contemporary artworks gathered in Fragments & Absences question the notions of memory, absence, and survival.

Mangoes & Meaning | Museum of Goa, India

Uriel Orlow is presenting Mangoes of Goan Origin (An Archive) as part of the group show Mangoes and Meaning: Histories, Ecologies and Cultural Imagination at Museum of Goa.

Expect to encounter the mango in ways you may not have before. After all, this isn’t just any fruit-it’s aam, the common thread that connects us all. This exhibition brings together personal, cultural, ecological, and communal perspectives, reflecting on what it means to grow a mango, to sit in the shade of its tree, to share it with neighbours, and to spend long summers in its presence. The exhibition explores how this fruit becomes a symbol of place, of season, and of belonging.
