Set in a remarkable sculpture park, the LaM has established a unique itinerary for visitors, highlighting the intersection between modern art, contemporary art and art brut. With over 7,000 works, the museum provides a striking overview of the art of the 20th and 21st centuries. By encouraging new ways of interacting and thinking about art, whether through its permanent collection, temporary exhibitions or cultural programme, the museum is focused on sparking your sense of curiosity, and leaves you feeling inspired and moved. Inaugurated in 1983 to house the modern art donation bequeathed by Geneviève and Jean Masurel, the LaM has since emerged as a leading museum on the world stage. Boasting an ambitious programme, it encourages encounters between artists who not only bear witness to their time, but weave a deeply personal perspective into their work.
The museum was closed but I took the opportunity to visit the park. I was alone and had a wonderful time 10 beautiful statues, sculptures disseminated in a vast park Take the metro line 1, stop at petit bois then take the bus line 6 and stop at LaM. Bus every 10 mn. I bought my return ticket at the metro station in Lille

La galerie est fondée en 2012 par deux passionnés et collectionneurs d'art contemporain, qui seront vite rejoints par leurs enfants. Ensemble, ils exposent les oeuvres d'artistes français et internationaux aux différentes influences : mouvements figuratifs des années 60-80, art urbain/street art, art singulier/outsiders.
