About the location

LaM

1 allée du Musée, VIlleneuve-d'Ascq

Nord

Hauts-de-France

By accepting the Masurel donation in 1979, Arthur Notebart, who was then President of the Urban Community of Lille, committed the local authority to an adventure that had not previously been within its remit. An association law 1901 was therefore created for the management of the museum of modern art and its statutes allowed to structure and organize the functioning of the Museum.
Pierre Chaigneau was then recruited as a curator to set up a program faithful to the act of donation that specified the wills of Geneviève and Jean Masurel. This program was to find its place in the building that the architect Roland Simounet was commissioned to build in the new town of Villeneuve-d'Ascq.
The fruitful dialogues between donors, architect and curator led to the opening in 1983 of a museum combining perfectly the functions of conservation and dissemination through permanent and temporary exhibition rooms, a sculpture park, an auditorium, a library, an educational and cultural service.
