MB&F M.A.D. Gallery
Rue Verdaine 11, 1204 Genève · Vieille-Ville
Open to the public, no appointment needed, free.
The place
The first MB&F M.A.D. Gallery, opened in 2011 in the heart of the Old Town, a few steps from the brand’s offices and workshop.
You can see the house’s Horological Machines and Legacy Machines, as well as kinetic art and Mechanical Art Devices by other artists: that is what “M.A.D.” stands for.
MB&F was founded by Maximilian Büsser in 2005; around 350 pieces a year, some fifty people. Chanel took a 25% stake in 2024.
Don’t miss
The pieces by other artists shown alongside the Machines: they are what set the gallery apart from a simple brand showroom.
