“Swiss Window in Asia” is a series of performance art events supported by Pro Helvetia Shanghai and takes tour from Shanghai to Beijing, Hong Kong and Macao from March 17-27, 2016, presenting to the viewers five talented Swiss performers whose works range from performance, theater, dance, to visual arts. As topic initiators, active on the international stage, were relatively not well-known in China. The series concluded with 83 shows (including one-to-one shows) and 1500 audiences, and have fueled heated discussion and brought wide attention.

As a follow-up of this well-acclaimed series Marie-Caroline Hominal returned to China with her dance and musical performance “Silver”, to tour from Shanghai Drama Arts Centre, to Wuhan and Chonqing from Nov.25-Dec.3, 2016.

After his participation with the breathtaking piece “Bain Brisé” at Swiss Window in Asia, Yann Marussich has conducted a 2-3-week residency project with Anne Rochat in March 2017. Yann has performed his renowned piece “Blue Remix” (2007) at the opening of “Post-sense Sensibility: Trepidation and Will” at McaM Shanghai.
