The exhibition is a commemorative project around the figure of Marbœuf, and brings together art works from all disciplines (plastic arts, literature, fashion, music, architecture…), thus giving shape to the imaginary existence of the character.

In literature, the incipit designates the first phrases of a novel, and in cinema the first scenes of a movie. It functions as a threshold, an open frontier between the outside of the real world and the inside of fiction. It is the beginning of a narration that anticipates what will come to pass, and suggests arrival with no thing being unveiled.

In her new exhibit, « Tourist, » artist Alexia Turlin reenacts the singular position she occupies on Geneva’s art scene in the space of the Fondation d’entreprise Ricard.
