The exhibition Plattform25 at the CAN Centre d’art Neuchâtel presents, from 10 May to 6 July 2025, an overview of emerging creation in Switzerland through 12 artistic positions. Mélissa Biondo, Thilda Bourqui, Anna Christen, Théa Giglio, Aleyna Günay, Salome Jokhadze, Anna Kawahara, Kelechi Madumere, Jorge Morocho Ibarra, Sophie Nadler und Etienne Eisele, Clara Roumégoux, and Sherif Sherif present recent works created within the year following the completion of their bachelor’s or master’s degree.
The group exhibition is organised by the association PlattformPlattform, founded in 2007 in Zurich by Charlotte Matter, Andreas Mattle, and Reto Thüring, with the aim of bringing together young artists from all over Switzerland and promoting nationwide exchange. Initially based in Zurich, the exhibition series has changed location each year since 2017, rotating between the different linguistic regions of Switzerland and collaborating each time with a renowned institution. After an edition at the Kunstmuseum Appenzell, the exhibition is being held this year, for the first time, in Neuchâtel.
