THE MONTREAL MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS
Founded in 1860, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA) is the oldest art museum in Canada and a leading museum in North America. Art lovers, the curious and families will find what they are looking for thanks to its rich program of temporary exhibitions that offer something for everyone.
PARALL(ELLES): A HISTORY OF WOMEN IN DESIGN
Organized in collaboration with the Stewart Program for Modern Design, this major exhibition celebrates the instrumental role women have played in the world of design through a rich corpus of art works and objects dating from the mid-19th century onwards. In addition, it examines the reasons why women are underrepresented in the history of this discipline and encourages an expanded understanding of what constitutes design.
THE MMFA’S COLLECTION
The MMFA's unique collection provides an opportunity to explore Quebec and Canadian heritage and international art from a critical and intercultural perspective. It comprises nearly 45,000 paintings, sculptures, graphic artworks, photographs, multimedia installations and decorative art objects, from Antiquity to the present.
