The exhibition, result of the Vibrations Forward research project, delves into the archives of the Swiss magazine Vibrations, published in Lausanne from 1991 to 2013. A collaboration with CIRCUIT Contemporary Art Center and the On The Vibe association.
The result of a year-long research project conducted at ECAL, the exhibition FWD – Improvisations brings together numerous archival documents from the Vibrations magazine (photographs, films, paintings, posters, vinyl album covers, etc.), placed in dialogue with contemporary works. These juxtapositions reveal connections between different eras, practices, and sensibilities, while opening up a space for reflection on the ways in which musical cultures are constructed, circulated, and transformed.
An exhibition featuring Francis Baudevin and in partnership with the On the Vibe association.
The publication, which is the result of the research project, is available on the ECAL shop.
