Description Opened in September 1994 in a former factory, Mamco takes into account the spirit of the building it occupies. The factory’s industrial architecture of the 1950s allows for a flexible and constantly changing museum arrangement.
The museum exhibits a broad range of works dating from the early 1960s to the present day. Its installations, videos, paintings, photographs, and sculptures come to Mamco on loan from public and private collections, as gifts, as artists’ deposits or as acquisitions.
In a convivial and playful manner inspired by the spirit of Marcel Duchamp, Mamco aims to provoke people to reconsider their understanding of the notions of "contemporary art" and "museum".
Three times a year the Museum presents a new stage of its ongoing construction with temporary exhibitions and new presentations of its collection.
