LAAC Museum of Contemporary Art, Modern art museum in Dunkirk, France.
The white ceramic building of LAAC Museum houses 1,500 works of modern art, featuring pieces by Andy Warhol and César within a sculpture garden.
Gilbert Delaine, an engineer, initiated the museum's collection in the 1970s through collaborations with sixty local companies to acquire contemporary artworks.
The museum presents four annual exhibitions in the Graphic Arts Room, where visitors can examine 200 drawings and prints in sliding showcases.
The museum opens Tuesday through Friday from 09:30 to 18:00 at 302 Avenue des Bordées, with regular exhibitions rotating pieces from the permanent collection.
