The ASL collaborated on the 2nd Biennial of Urban Art and Nature, which took place in Geneva from 1 to 6 May.er<\/sup> September to 1er<\/sup> October 2023. Called \u00abBeyond Water\u00bb, this edition focused on water and biodiversity around Lake Geneva, showcasing the work of 25 local and international artists. By combining artistic approaches with educational and scientific activities, it offered alternative perspectives on environmental issues and a better understanding of the preservation and revitalisation of urban nature.<\/p>

This collaboration has already taken shape in various ways in the run-up to the event. In fact, several artists have sought advice from our specialists, either to obtain specific explanations about the design of their works in relation to Lake Geneva, or to find out more about a particular species. For example, Pascal Mulattieri, president of the ASL, was able to offer his expertise to Flurina Badel and J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Sarbach on a work featuring the Quagga Mussel, while Alexis Pochelon, project manager at the ASL, met Jonathan Delachaux and the Tchan-Z\u00e2ca collective to help them with their project involving the Cormorant. Our editor-in-chief, Rapha\u00eblle Juge, wrote a response to an \u00abInstruction\u00bb by artist Antje Majewski on the subject of the misnamed \u00abweeds\u00bb. We were also able to put the artists in touch with the cantonal services regarding the applications for authorisation needed to set up works in the public space along the waterfront, or even under the lake.<\/p>

To mark the occasion, the ASL hosted works by six leading environmental artists in its arcade, representing original voices that demonstrate awareness of and commitment to the environmental crisis.<\/p>
