The Musee d'Art Moderne Grand-Duc Jean (Mudam) opened in 2006 in a building designed by architect leoh Ming Pei. Mudam's mission is to present the most relevant contemporary art of our time to the largest possible audiences. Mudam's vision is to serve as a reference museum for contemporary art and to be an iconic museum for Luxembourg in terms of artistic and cultural excellence. Through the activities it presents and the manner in which it operates, Mudam promotes creativity, visionary thinking, openness and cultural participation for all. Like Luxembourg itself, Mudam is situated in Europe but has a global and outward looking vision. Mudam is committed to a more inclusive, more tolerant and more responsible world in which museums play a leading role in the transmission of our cultural heritage to future generations.

Barbara T. Smith These female artists defied convention by creating bridges between art and technology, reminding historical figures who contributed to the digital revolution such as Ada Lovelace, who developed the first algorithm or the female mathematicians working at NASA in the 1950s and 1960s. We're rewriting history to honour these unsung artists and inspire future generations.
