Le Palais de Tokyo, site de création contemporaine

Le Palais de Tokyo est le lieu pour l’émergence de l’art contemporain.

Pensé comme un forum ouvert à tous, il offre une nouvelle manière de vivre l’art au plus près de son époque, des attentes du public et des artistes.

Première institution ouverte de midi à minuit, il propose à la fois des expositions, des évènements, des conférences.

Le Palais de Tokyo a également crée un accueil sur mesure au service de tous les publics, grâce à une équipe de médiateurs spécialiste des nouvelles pratiques contemporaines.

3000 m2 d’espaces d’exposition, un restaurant, une cafétéria, une librairie et une boutique en font un véritable lieu de vie.

Ouvert tous les jours de midi à minuit sauf le lundi.
