I've Dreamt About - Collection Mudam 23 November 2011 - 04 March 2012
Artists never stop thinking and reinventing our relationship with reality through their imagination and their projections. From the “realist utopias” of Tomás Saraceno to the models of urban expansion developed by François Roche, artists are positioning themselves in the outposts of new researches. Thus these sweet dreamers and visionaries sketch out new ways of being in the world. As sounding boards of numerous utopias, they nontheless cast a critical gaze on our past experiments and know how to detect the conflicts that tomorrow heralds.

The Museum
Mudam Luxembourg - Musée d’Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean
Mudam is the foremost museum dedicated to contemporary art in Luxembourg, and strives to be attentive to every discipline and open to the whole world. Its collection and programme reflect current artistic trends and appreciate the emergence of new artistic practices on a national and international scale.
The building, by famous Sino-American architect Ieoh Ming Pei, is a marvellous dialogue between the natural and historical environment. Standing against the vestiges of Fort Thüngen, it follows the course of the former surrounding walls, and is rooted in the Park Dräi Eechelen (planned by landscapist, Michel Desvigne) which offers magnificent views onto the old town just a short walk from the European district of Kirchberg.
The simple volumes and generous spaces of the building show the mastery of the architectural language by the famous architect in combining stone and glass. The skillful play between interior and exterior, multiplying the selected views onto the park environment whilst opening onto the sky thanks to the audacious glass canopy, is highlighted through the use of the covering in Magny Doré, a honey-coloured limestone which assumes, at any time of the day and in all seasons, subtle nuances depending on the light which it reflects. The museum is spread over three levels of 4,500 m2 of surface area dedicated to the visits. Its construction was begun in January 1999 and it was inaugurated on 1 July 2006.
