In 2026, the Swatch Art Peace Hotel, Swatch’s unique artist residency where creativity knows no limits, celebrates 15 years as a vibrant hub for artistic expression. To mark this important milestone, the brand is launching the Swatch Art Peace Hotel Collection, six watches that bring together six artists from across China, the home country of the residency.
Since opening its doors on November 1, 2011, the Swatch Art Peace Hotel has been much more than a space for artists to live and work. Reflecting Swatch's longstanding passion for art and its commitment to supporting artists, it is a platform for creative exchange where diverse voices, artistic disciplines, and generations come together and are given the time, space, and freedom to focus on one thing: creating. While each artist brings a unique artistic perspective, they are united by their shared love for art, as well as their connection to the Swatch Art Peace Hotel.
The Swatch Art Peace Hotel Collection celebrates the extraordinary talent of six Chinese artists from diverse artistic backgrounds, generations, and disciplines. Inspired by their time at the residency and guided by their distinctive creative vision, each one contributed an original artwork that was transformed into a Swatch. Together, these six timepieces embody a shared creative journey and the vibrant artistic community that has been at the heart of the Swatch Art Peace Hotel for the past 15 years.
