"Great art space!"
Domas
"I went for the excellent Francis Bacon exhibition, but lots more to see and think about in very approachable spaces. A knowledgeable stagiaire (Noelline?) was very helpful. The château next door is beautiful and peaceful."
Suellen Grealy
"Great museum if you like abstract art (the last exhibit of Carlos Cruz-Diez was world class...). Its not immediately obvious to find, so enter the Parc du Chateau, where you will immediately see a big green building. The ticket price of 6 euros should also allow you to enter the neighboring Chateau de Mouans Sartoux that also hosts temporary exhibits."
