Our mission

To conserve, to display and to transmit are the key words defining the MAMC+. The Museum holds the label “Museum of France”. With this designation, the Museum is committed to cosseting its collection by preserving it in the very best of condition for a transmission to future generations. It ensures its maintenance (dust removal), restoration (repairing) but also its enrichment (through the acquisition of new works) and its documentation.Publics discover the collection through regularly renewed thematic exhibitions. They stand alongside and resonate with exhibitions by contemporary artists. The programming of events incites discovery, with the Museum contributing to a democratisation of art and its access to all.

Nearly 70 people work on a daily basis at the Museum. You only met the tip of the iceberg, people you meet during your visit: the helpful reception staff, the scrupulous wardens, the impassioned mediators and the attentive staff at the Museum shop. Behind the exhibitions hide curators and technicians, collections managers organizing loans all over the world, without forgetting the documentation department. Technical teams ensure the proper functioning of the entire building. The public department is dedicated to the service of all our visitors to ensure the comfort of all. The administrative department manages the communication, informing you of the Museum's life and news. With everything under the guidance of a young and dynamic management, personified by our General Director, Aurélie Voltz. 

A whole little world concerned by the quality of your visitor’s experience!

The passion for contemporary art does not stop at the doors of the MAMC+. The Association of the Friends of the Musée d’art moderne et contemporain has been a devoted companion since 1987. Its 400 members are committed to the promotion of the Museum and its collections through different types of action: conferences, acquisitions or donations of works. Finally, the Partners Club has been contributing to the reputation and notoriety of the Museum since 2006. Benefiting from dynamic entreeprises, the club has become a heartfelt supportinng young contemporary creation. Each year the Partners Prize is awarded to an emerging artist and the Club’s acquisitions contribute to the graphic art collection of the Museum. 

A big thanks to all our precious ambassadors!
