MUSVERRE

This brand new structure welcomes the rich contemporary collections of nearly 1,000 m ², including documentation spaces and workshops. It must be said that all works presented at the Glass Museum are extremely rich (more than 550 creations in total), making the most important collection of its kind in France. A true temple dedicated to art that pays tribute to the history of the region's verrière (nineteenth century) of the region. The modern and refined architecture reinforces the majesty of the place, and offers a splendid crush on the graceful and timeless sculptures of international artists specialized in the work of this fragile material. Their laboratory of experiments, the Glass Workshop, is a true creative pole, where sculptors have advanced equipment to develop and continue to develop their inventiveness. Open houses are organized every year to make the stage of manufacture of a work of art known, particularly the most difficult: the glass blowing. For visitors, art lovers and budding artists, the museum also offers introductory and awakening workshops to try to create works. In addition to the riches presented by the museum's permanent collection, temporary exhibitions offer a new and lively look at the interaction between abstract modern art and the surrounding environment. The visit is very interesting and highlights the city's past in the most beautiful way!
