MAMCO
Go there and contact
From the outside, the MAMCO building, housed in an old, disused factory, looks rather unappealing. But think again! It owes its creation to Amam (Association des amis du musée d'Art moderne), founded in 1973. Many patrons wish to share their works. You don't need to be an Andy Warhol aficionado or an expert in contemporary art to appreciate the works. The Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain de Genève (Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Geneva) is open to all visitors, from 0 to 150 years of age, whether or not they are art connoisseurs, and features 3,500 m² of exhibition space spread over several floors, in large, light-filled halls. As its name suggests, this museum is dedicated to contemporary art. Whether you like it or not, you won't remain indifferent to the works on display. A common thread that defines it? Its dynamism! The museum is constantly reinventing itself: in addition to the permanent exhibition, three temporary exhibitions are organized each year. The permanent works are regularly renewed, mingling with those in the temporary exhibition. You'll never get bored! The entity has built up a veritable collection of important works for Contemporary Art in Switzerland. Guided tours and public education are a constant feature, and the museum's ambition is to introduce newcomers to the richness of this heritage. And it succeeds! The MAMCO is full of surprises! The themes of the exhibitions are interesting, the ideas always very creative and the works very well presented.
