MAMAC, or the Modern & Contemporary Art Museum, located near Place Garibaldi, Nice, is dedicated to modern and contemporary art. The museum is tetrapod arch-shaped, spanning the Paillon, the coastal river. The rooftop of the museum offers panoramic views of the neighboring areas.
Made up of four square-shaped, windowless concrete towers, they are linked with glazed passageways in the form of arches. From the late 1950s to the present, the museum has a collection of pioneering artworks. These pieces are from various groups, including the European New Realists, American Pop art, the School of Nice, Arte Povera, Supports and Surfaces, and many other artistic protagonists. The area is extended to over ten display sections representing the neo-classicism style. On the first floor, the gallery spaces are reserved for temporary exhibitions, while the second and third floors are home to the gallery's permanent collections.
