  • PRESS PACK the MACM CONCEPT the MACM the Musée D’Art Classique De Mougins, Also Known As MACM, Is the Mougins Museum of Classical Art
    MUSÉE D’ART CLASSIQUE DE MOUGINS PRESS PACK www.mouginsmusee.com THE MACM CONCEPT THE MACM The Musée d’Art Classique de Mougins, also known as MACM, is the Mougins Museum of Classical Art. The museum displays within the same space ancient, neoclassical, modern, and contemporary art in order to highlight the considerable influence of the ancient world on the great artists from Sir Peter Paul Rubens to Damien Hirst. Situated on the Côte d’Azur, Mougins is famous for its spectacular views over Cannes and the Alps, its gastronomy, and the beauty of its old village, which from an aerial view resembles a snail. Historic region of the Mediterranean at the edge of ancient Greek civilisation and the heart of the Roman Empire, close to the Graeco-Roman settlements of Nice (Nikaia) and Antibes (Antipolis), Mougins also reconnects with its artistic past through the works on show at the museum which were produced by its former residents Francis Picabia, Jean Cocteau, Man Ray, and of course Pablo Picasso who spent the last 12 years of his life here. Located at the entrance of the picturesque village of Mougins, this private museum holds an exceptional collection of over 800 works over four floors. The MACM focuses on the reciprocal influences of the ancient civilisations of Egypt, Rome, and Greece, and the continuity of the Graeco-Roman legacy through to the present. This narrative also underlines the importance of the interaction of cultures from East to West rather than the chronological development of each civilisation. Remarkable artefacts from ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome interact with drawings, paintings, and sculptures by Paul Cézanne, Marc Chagall, Pablo Picasso, Auguste Renoir, Jean Cocteau, Salvador Dalí, Raoul Dufy, Antony Gormley, Keith Haring, Damien Hirst, Henri Matisse, Henry Moore, Francis Picabia, Marc Quinn, Auguste Rodin, and Henri Toulouse-Lautrec, to name but a few.
