The museum venue and location is very nice. The staff were friendly. The admission is steep for what is on site, but gives you access for a few months to a number of other museums in Lyon. This venue is fairly small on three levels. There did not appear to be any permanent installations, and the entirety was devoted to art from Lebanon during the 60s and 70s. While it was interesting and had some ties to a few businesses in Lyon, it was a bit disappointing. The entire focus on one subject may work for some visitors for some subjects. A different experience could be had with a different...

I really enjoyed the current exhibition which was thought provoking and interesting. The exhibits are very well collected and presented, with enough clear information - in both French and English - without being overwhelming. The spaces were adjusted well to each exhibit as was the lighting and sound. Clearly a lot of expert thought has gone into to this exhibition - my thanks and appreciation to the managers, technicians artistic specialists. The staging and the building did its job of disappearing into the background without ever upstaging or...

The Museum of Contemporary Art is closed until March 8th. I will update my review then because there's a really cool-looking exhibit on Los Angeles coming and I love LA, so I'm hoping to see it. Entry is free that evening (the 8th). I'll be there! (I can tell you the area surrounding the MDC is really nice. It's right across from the Parc de la Tete d'Or, and there are a few trams and buses that stop there, so it's easy to get...

The museum on its own is quite nice. However, the curator's complacency is disastrous. The only single task of not ruining the impression from the art pieces is masterfully failed by provincial pretentiousness of the descriptions written by the curators. If you ever visit this museum you can, in fact, do it two times: first just enjoy the artworks and the second time just enjoy the overwhelming ego of the ones who organized it.

Spent a very happy Saturday afternoon here after a work conference. The work is engaging, and passionately curated and presented. Some of it is cool, some funny, some weird.. just what you want from a modern art gallery. Many people have said it's small, but I didn't find this at all there lots to see, but not so much that you can't do it all in a couple of hours. A great experience thank you!

Le musée d'art contemporain est un véritable joyau culturel qui allie parfaitement modernité et créativité. Chaque visite est une expérience enrichissante, tant pour les adultes que pour les enfants. Les expositions sont soigneusement choisies et offrent une diversité d'œuvres captivantes qui stimulent l'imagination et la réflexion. J'apprécie particulièrement l'ambiance inspirante et accueillante du musée. Les espaces sont lumineux, bien agencés et permettent une immersion totale dans l'art contemporain. De plus, le personnel est toujours courtois et prêt à partager des informations intéressantes sur les œuvres exposées. Mes enfants adorent explorer le musée, et je suis toujours impressionnée par les activités et les ateliers interactifs qui leur sont proposés. Ils ont l'occasion de découvrir l'art de manière ludique et éducative, ce qui nourrit leur curiosité et leur créativité. En résumé, le musée d'art contemporain est un lieu incontournable pour toute la famille, où chacun peut trouver du plaisir et de l'inspiration. C'est un endroit où l'art prend vie et où chaque visite est une nouvelle aventure.
