Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal

Website

As the first institution in Canada devoted exclusively to contemporary art, with a collection of over 7,800 works, the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal (MAC) is committed to demonstrating the fundamental role of contemporary art in our society. To this end, it offers visitors a range of artistic and educational activities designed to familiarize the general public with contemporary art. With the strength of its half-century of existence, the Musée continues to defend its mission with ever-greater conviction: to make known, promote and conserve contemporary Québec art, and to ensure the presence of international contemporary art through acquisitions, exhibitions and other activities.

With its head office in the heart of the Quartier des spectacles undergoing a major architectural transformation, the MAC has temporarily relocated its activities to Place Ville Marie, another of the city’s landmarks. For the duration of the works, the museum will be reaching out to the public with temporary exhibitions featuring exceptional artists and a variety of practices. The MAC at Place Ville Marie also offers a wide range of educational services, creative workshops and community outreach activities.
