The Muse d #39;art moderne et d #39;art contemporain, also known as MAMAC, is a museum dedicated to modern art and contemporary art. It opened on 21 June 1990, in Nice. The museum is located near the Place Garibaldi. It was designed by two architects, Yves Bayard and Henri Vidal, and is shaped as a tetrapod arch straddling the course of Paillon. The monumentality of the project developed to cross the Paillon allows connection through a terrace, called the Promenade des Arts, from the museum to the theater. With its square plan, the architecture of the building is inspired by neo-classicism rules. The available area is approximately 3800 m2, distributed over nine showrooms. The facades are covered with smooth white Carrara marble. The entrance and the shop are located at the level of the esplanade, which overlooks the Place Yves Klein. The gallery spaces are devoted to temporary exhibitions on the first floor, and the permanent collections are on the second and third floors. The museum is free and opens daily from 10.00 am to 6:00 pm, except Mondays and some holidays.From:Pietro PeccoViews:0 0ratingsTime:00:33More inTravel Events
