17bis Rue François-Versonnex, 1207 Genève

For private aviation travellers, luxury is no longer defined solely by the aircraft or destination, but by meaningful connections to people, places and cultural encounters that exist beyond the expected itinerary.

As the Editor, I have the privilege of discovering spaces and individuals shaping contemporary culture in quiet yet meaningful ways. One such encounter was with Sixtine Crutchfield, whom I first met over a decade ago in Geneva. 

Our conversation at the time already reflected the same clarity, curiosity and cultural ease that continue to define her approach today.

She is the driving force behind Atelier du Temps Genève, a contemporary art space located in Eaux-Vives, one of Geneva’s elegant lakeside districts, positioned just moments from the prestigious Rue du Rhône and only a short walk from the waterfront.

Atelier du Temps Genève is conceived as a bridge between the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries, presenting a carefully curated selection of artworks and exceptional objects that move effortlessly between heritage and contemporary creation. 

More than a gallery, it is a fluid cultural space where painting, sculpture, photography, mixed media and collectible design are brought into thoughtful dialogue.

The space is open to the public while also offering private viewings by arrangement, allowing for a more personal and considered experience when required.

Engagement is highly individual, with Sixtine Crutchfield known for her hands-on approach and for ensuring that works can be carefully prepared and packed for seamless international travel when needed.

Its curatorial vision extends into digital and evolving cultural frameworks, reflecting a broader interest in how technology is reshaping authorship, artistic exchange and the circulation of contemporary art.

Located approximately 15 to 20 minutes, around 7 to 8 kilometres from Geneva Airport (GVA), it is ideally positioned for travellers moving between meetings, Alpine escapes and onward flights, making it a natural and effortless stop between journeys.

A must-visit in Geneva, it is a space where conversation matters as much as collection, and where each visit is shaped entirely by context and intent.

A beautiful human being, Sixtine is a genuine practitioner and trusted advisor in the arts — experienced, deeply engaged in her field and possessing a rare ability to connect people with works of lasting significance. 

Her curatorial standard spans all periods and mediums, supported by vast knowledge and a highly refined sensibility.

This recommendation belongs firmly in the top tier for those with taste, curiosity and appreciation for personal attention. It is a true treasure trove and place of learning.

It is recommended to book at least one hour in advance, allowing time for preparation of works and a more considered visit.

During the experience, guests may also be offered hospitality such as fine cheeses, wine and chocolates, while receiving thoughtful introductions to local florists and other carefully curated shopping recommendations.
