Photographer's Note

A image taken by the inside of the facade glazed by the MAMCS of Strasbourg


Inaugurated in 1998, the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Strasbourg (MAMCS) complements the network of city museums by offering a veritable panorama of modern and contemporary art in Western Europe from 1890 to the present.
The building erected on the bank of the Ill, in the heart of the town's historical center occupies a surface area of around 13,000 square meters divided into two sections: one facing the Petite France neighborhood, the other paralleling the area around the train station. Between the two, a vast glass nave serves as a reception hall and an articulation between rooms, favoring transparency between the museum's interior and the city.
