Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art

MMVI MUSEUM

Opened in 2014 on Avenue Moulay Hassan, the Mohammed VI Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMVI) was the first national institution in Morocco dedicated to 20th- and 21st-century art. The permanent collection traces Moroccan modernism from the pioneers of the 1950s (Cherkaoui, Gharbaoui, Belkahia) through the Casablanca School and the younger contemporary scene. The temporary programme regularly brings in international retrospectives — Picasso, Goya, Delacroix, and major African and Arab contemporary surveys.
