Since its opening in 1994, the MAMCO Geneva (Musée d’art moderne et contemporain) has developed an original form of museography, making it a unique institution in the international art scene. Located in a former industrial building in the heart of Geneva, MAMCO is currently the largest museum devoted to contemporary art in Switzerland, spread over 3,500 m2.

MAMCO's mission is to explore the shifting boundaries and interrelationships between art and everyday life. It does so by presenting an extraordinary variety of objects, from the applied arts to design and architecture, and from contemporary art to historical artifacts. The museum's collections and exhibitions reflect a commitment to the dialogue between traditional craftsmanship and industrial production, between the historical legacy and the future of creativity.

The museum's exhibitions are diverse and often groundbreaking, ranging from focused considerations of historical and contemporary artists to thematic and investigative surveys. MAMCO has also been instrumental in presenting a number of critically acclaimed exhibitions that range in scope from focused considerations of historical and contemporary artists to thematic and investigative surveys.

In addition to its main location in Geneva, MAMCO has extended its reach to other locations and the public sphere. One such extension is the summer project room, Hellvi Ka?nnungs, in a rebuilt limestone barn on the island of Gotland. Since 2011, this space has served as an alternative exhibition space to the gallery in Zurich. Some of the gallery artists have curated their own exhibitions here, and it has been a place to explore new ideas. Hellvi Ka?nnungs has become a meeting point for artists and the public in an environment completely different from the urban gallery space.

MAMCO stands as a unique institution in the global art scene. Its commitment to fostering dialogue between art and everyday life, promoting international artists, and nurturing a love for art among the public has made it a significant player in the global art scene. As it continues to evolve and expand, MAMCO remains dedicated to its mission of supporting and promoting the work of innovative and pioneering artists.
