Last updated date : 01/10/2025

Art can often provide key insights into the political, social and cultural changes of an era. This is exactly what the double exhibition entitled Personal Stories / Political Realities, promises to explore. The exhibition will be presented at the Musée d'art contemporain in Lyon from 19 September 2025 to 4 January 2026.

Several years of close collaboration between the teams at the MoCAB and at macLYON have brought them into contact with each other’s collections, and prompted a desire to compare and combine the artistic visions and backgrounds of artists who feature in the collections of both museums. The exhibition provides an insight into the tremendous creative productivity of contemporary artists from Serbia and former Yugoslavia, many of whom are sorely underrepresented in French public collections. At the same time, it opens a window onto the international contemporary art scene, which is a defining feature of the macLYON collection.

Curators: Isabelle Bertolotti, Director of macLYON ; Maja Kolarić, Director of MoCAB ; Miroslav Karić, Curator at MoCAB ; Matthieu Lelièvre, Head of Collections at macLYON.
