Liege Fine Arts Museum

Liege Fine Arts Museum, Art museum in Féronstrée et Hors-Château, Liège, Belgium.

The Musée des beaux-arts de Liège (BAL) occupied a building designed by Henri Bonhomme between 1975 and 1980 in the Féronstrée et Hors-Château district. Its permanent collection was shown in a spiral gallery that had previously housed the Musée de l'Art Wallon, while the Salle Saint-Georges displayed work by contemporary artists from Liège and Wallonia. The museum closed on 28 February 2016, and its collections moved to La Boverie.

The museum opened in 2011 following a reorganization of several art collections in the city. This consolidation brought together scattered holdings and established a new institutional home for Liège's artistic legacy.

The museum's name, BAL, short for Beaux-Arts Liège, was adopted when the institution opened in 2011. Its displays drew on three separate collections: the Musée de l'Art wallon, MAMAC and the Cabinet des Estampes et des Dessins. In the Salle Saint-Georges, works by contemporary artists from Liège and Wallonia were shown.

The museum occupied a building by architect Henri Bonhomme in the Féronstrée and Hors-Château district, next to the Grand Curtius. The permanent collection was shown in a spiral gallery that had housed the Musée de l'Art Wallon, while the Salle Saint-Georges held work by contemporary artists from Liège and Wallonia. It closed on 28 February 2016, and the collections moved to La Boverie in the Parc de la Boverie, which opened on 5 May 2016.

The print room's core came from Canon Henri Hamal, the last chapel master of Saint-Lambert Cathedral, whose pre-1800 sheets passed into the city's hands. A second major group is the 2,000 pieces left by the 19th-century Liège collector Ulysse Capitaine, among them old views and plans of the city.
