About Centre Pompidou - Metz
A bold landmark of contemporary architecture in Metz, the Centre Pompidou-Metz is the provincial sibling of the famous Paris museum and one of the most important centres for modern and contemporary art in France. Its extraordinary building, designed by architects Shigeru Ban and Jean de Gastines, is crowned by a vast undulating white roof inspired by a Chinese hat, woven from timber and covered in a translucent membrane, with three long galleries thrusting out toward the city. Inside, major temporary exhibitions draw on the immense collection of the Centre Pompidou to present masterpieces of 20th- and 21st-century art. Architecturally stunning and culturally ambitious, the Centre Pompidou-Metz has become a beacon that has helped transform the city into a destination for art lovers — a spectacular and essential stop for anyone interested in modern art.
