Based on a saturation effect, the show brings together works that all exhibit a pattern of vertical stripes, a recurring theme in the history of art and of fashion. Hung on a mural by John M Armleder, abstract works by artists of various backgrounds and generations accumulate and interact.

With artists John M Armleder, Domenico Battista, Francis Baudevin, Lisa Beck, Sylvain Croci-Torti, Stéphane Dafflon, Ian Davenport, Philippe Decrauzat, Émilie Ding, Sylvie Fleury, Frédéric Gabioud, Liam Gillick, Lena Hilton, Vera Molnar, Olivier Mosset, Hans-Walter Müller, Mai-Thu Perret, Jean-Michel Sanejouand and Michael Scott, the exhibition immerses visitors in a space that consists purely of colors and abstract shapes, creating rhythm and vibration. Galerie des Galeries becomes a universe, a vibrant, colorful space for playful wandering, a facetious reminder that some abstract practices bear an eerie resemblance to those of Pop Art.
