Planet Museomix,<\/p>\n

We are pleased to announce that in November 2014, six museums will cheerfully, energetically and passionately be remixed:<\/p>\n

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts<\/a>, expanded, renovated and reinvented, the MMFA is more attractive than ever! This is one of the most popular museums in Canada, with painting, music, cinema, fashion, design … 4000 works in its universalist collection reconsidered and reinstalled in its four pavilions. It will also be the first bilingual location in Museomix history.

The Antique Museum of Arles<\/a>\u00a0is one of the most important archaeological museums in Europe, both in its objects and works from the Neolithic to late antiquity, all discovered in the region. It presents a joint bid with\u00a0the Museon Arlaten<\/a>\u00a0and its 35,000 ethnographic objects of Provence: costumes, furniture, music, tools, paintings, photographs, models … to tell the lifestyles of the inhabitants of Provence.

The Derby Silk Museum<\/a>\u00a0is a museum actively renewing itself for\u00a0the 21st century. Originally built to house machines for twisting silk thread, the Silk Mill tells the exciting story of the imposing machines used during England’s Industrial Revolution. Derby Silk works to revinvent its relationship with the\u00a0community through\u00a0projects like “Remake the Museum” and “The Happy Museum Project”, and will be opening its doors to museomix!

The Natural History Museum of Lille<\/a>\u00a0has been open for over 150 years. Skeletons of sperm whales\u00a0and other marine mammals float above the visitor, while on the groun dioramas illustrate the lives of animals in our forests, swamps, coasts and countryside. The collections reflect the diversity of the living world and raise awareness of the fragile ecological balance. The early life of man, and his\u00a0400 million years history, is also\u00a0illustrated, with sound. The Lille Museum also opens its storage rooms during the event.
