Swatch has a deep love of art, collaborating with artists for over forty years. Made in Switzerland, joie de vivre, and positive provocation remain at the heart of this vision, and the Swatch Art Peace Hotel stands as a vibrant symbol of this ongoing commitment to supporting creativity from around the world.
It offers a space where creativity knows no bounds or borders, a space where every creative mind, engaged in any discipline from anywhere in the world, can do one thing: create. Located in the vibrant center of Shanghai, the residency embodies the city’s energy and forward-thinking spirit. It serves as both a hub of creativity and an incubator for innovative projects. Here, artists’ careers flourish and new ideas come to life.
Invited talents have the time, space, and freedom to work and develop within a dynamic community of extraordinary minds. To date, the residency has welcomed over 600 artists from 60 countries.
In 2026, the Swatch Art Peace Hotel proudly celebrates its fifteenth anniversary, a significant milestone that reflects Swatch’s ongoing commitment to fostering artistic innovation. This commitment is also being celebrated on this anniversary with the “Flora Fantastica” exhibition, held in the Royal Gardens of San Marco in Venice from May 6 to July 26, 2026, coinciding with the 61st Venice International Art Exhibition.
Flora Fantastica transports visitors to a landscape of emotions, presenting the works of five artists in residence at the Swatch Art Peace Hotel, hailing from different countries
and representing a range of artistic disciplines. Each artist places nature at the center of their art, taking up residence in the splendid greenhouse and blending seamlessly with the evocative atmosphere of the Royal Gardens.
Swatch has always nurtured a deep love of art and has collaborated with artists for over forty years, continuing to follow their journeys even after their residencies with exhibitions and events that have established themselves on the international scene. At the heart of this vision, the Swatch Art Peace Hotel stands as a vibrant symbol of this ongoing commitment to supporting creativity from around the world.
