Musee d'art contemporain de Lyon-macLYON

Created in 1984 in a wing of the Palais Saint-Pierre, in 1995 the Musée d'art contemporain de Lyon moved to the Cité internationale in a new building by the architect Renzo Piano, located on the edges of the Parc de la Tête d'Or The 6,000m2 museum is spread over several floors and presents modular spaces that are perfectly adapted to the needs of the different artistic projects welcomed by the museum, as well as new forms of contemporary expression. The macLYON focuses on current national and international art, in all its forms, offering exhibitions and a wide programme of transdisciplinary events. Its collection includes over 1,500 works. A selection of these is shown in rotation at the macLYON, as well as in several museums and partner structures in France or abroad.
