Bex Arts 26: Génies du lieu
About this place
In the Szilassy Landscape Park in Bex, the 16th edition of the Bex Arts Triennial invites 21 artists and artist duos to explore the connections between contemporary art, landscape, history, and living things. Titled “Geniuses of the Place,” this edition pays tribute to the unique spirit of this park, which will soon celebrate its bicentennial, and examines the narratives, imaginations, and tensions that run through it. Sculptures, installations, and landscape interventions mark a path through the open air designed as an aesthetic, sensory, and collective experience. The artists invited to participate in this 16th edition are: Elisa Balmaceda, Guillaume Barth, Mirko Baselgia, Cedric Bregnard, Ishita Chakraborty, Olivier Crouzel, Chloé Delarue, Lara Estoppey & Olivier Estoppey, Gailing Rickling, Jérémie Gindre, Christian Gonzenbach, Yann Gross, Pauline Julier, Olga Kokcharova, Lang/Baumann, Pierre Leguillon, Hunter Longe, Lou Masduraud, Rachel Morend, Gina Proenza, and Shirin Yousefi.
