This milestone offers an opportunity both to acknowledge the depth of this remarkable heritage and to reaffirm the museum\u2019s forward-looking vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new exhibition results from an unprecedented collective curatorial process involving all museum teams. Through shared discussions, debates, and selections, the display brings together emblematic works from the collection, inviting visitors to rediscover artworks that have shaped twenty years of life at MAC VAL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rooted in a departmental policy supporting artists since 1982, the MAC VAL collection is regularly recontextualized through thematic rehangs. In spring 2025, the museum presents a journey dedicated to the hierarchy of artistic genres, first theorized in 1667 by art historian Andr\u00e9 F\u00e9libien.<br>With a playful and critical approach, \u201cThe Ideal Genre.
