Passer d'un rêve à l'autre / To pass from one dream to another

18e Biennale de Lyon – Musée d’art contemporain – macLYON

2026

Dates

Sep 19 — Dec 13, 2026

Venues and dates

Originally established in 1984, in a wing of the Palais Saint-Pierre when the City of Lyon decided to assemble a collection of contemporary art, macLYON relocated in 1995 to the Cité Internationale, a vast architectural complex stretching between the Rhône and Tête d’Or Park. The museum – designed by Renzo Piano, the architect of the entire complex – is a dialogue between the façade of the atrium of the Palais de la Foire, designed by Charles Meysson in the 1920s, and its contemporary portion in red brickwork.
