An exceptional weekend

New building of Photo Elysée and mudac at Plateforme 10

A look back at two exceptional days!

More than 15,000 of you took part in the discovery weekend of Photo Elysée and mudac's new building at Plateforme 10, and we thank you for that!

You were able to preview the vast spaces of the building designed by the Portuguese architects Aires Mateus as well as the installation created especially for the occasion by the internationally renowned Swiss artist Christian Marclay, who was able to highlight the architecture and collections of both museums. "Impressive" was the recurring word many of you used when you discovered the building, realizing the magnitude of the architectural challenge.

The handover of the keys to our building marks the end of more than 3 years of construction, but more importantly, the beginning of a new chapter in our history! In the coming months, our teams will progressively move into the building to install the first exhibitions that you will be able to discover next summer.

See you on June 18 and 19, 2022 for the Opening of Photo Elysée and mudac at Plateforme 10!
