La Maison Rouge, Contemporary art museum in 12th arrondissement, Paris, France.
The museum occupied a converted factory building near Bastille, featuring 2000 square meters of exhibition space with large white walls and industrial details.
Antoine de Galbert established La Maison Rouge in June 2004, transforming an old factory into a foundation dedicated to contemporary art exhibitions and cultural dialogue.
The foundation presented three to six exhibitions annually, focusing on private collections and monographic shows that explored diverse forms of contemporary artistic expression.
Located at 10 Boulevard de la Bastille, the museum remained accessible Wednesday through Sunday, with extended hours on Thursdays until its closure in 2018.
The foundation derived its name from the red farmhouse that housed its offices, combining historical architecture with modern artistic vision.
