La Malmaison, Art museum on Boulevard de la Croisette, Cannes, France.
La Malmaison is an art museum housed in a former pavilion of the Grand Hotel along the Croisette. The space features white marble floors and tall windows framing views toward the sea.
The structure was built in 1863 as part of the Grand Hotel development. It transformed into an art center for temporary exhibitions in 1983.
The space hosts rotating exhibitions of modern and contemporary work, reflecting the artistic conversations happening across Europe and beyond. Visitors encounter pieces that speak to today's creative movements and concerns.
The exhibition spaces spread across two floors connected by a central staircase. Guided tours in several languages can be arranged in advance.
The building retains original architectural details from the Napoleon III era, such as ornate plasterwork and nineteenth-century iron columns. These features give the rooms a sense of the period when the structure was first built.
