Collection Lambert Avignon Reviews

Not all inclusive but perhaps not the contemporary art decoder. Next life more bohemian perhaps?

The courtyard, the bookshop, the restaurant. And also the picture rails.

Nice exhibition space. Interesting bookshop. Great cafe in the square with helpful & friendly staff

Absolutely magical place for exceptional exhibitions.

Museum of Modern Art, a little small, 8 , student discount 6

Not far from the Rakin Museum of Nature you will find the Lumber Collection, a contemporary art museum, which includes over 550 works of art purchased by renowned art collector Yvonne Lamber and donated to the museum by him. His complete collection includes over 1200 works of art, so he has donated about half to the museum. The museum's exhibitions include works by more than 110 artists, including Alice Anderson, Jason Dodge, Jean-Michel Basquia and more.

For lunch, you can sit in the museum restaurant.

Admission is reasonable. Children 5 and under come in for free.

Opening hours: Tuesdays to Sundays 11am to 6pm, July-August daily 11am to 7pm.

How long should you visit? Between half an hour and an hour.

A great place, in my eyes essential in Avignon. The architecture of the museum itself is pleasant and uncluttered. The scenography of the works is for the most part well thought out (especially for the room on the top floor under the eaves !!).

Only downside: the student rate could be a little more advantageous. (Here 8 instead of 10 or 11 in normal price)

Yet very sensitive to contemporary works,
I was very disappointed with the Permanent and Resident Expo ...

Didn't actually go inside because the restaurant in the courtyard was so good.

I am looking forward to visiting this gallery, but when I arrived I was told that their visits were closed the next day before the end of the strange newest exhibition next week. In other words, check to make sure there is an exhibition on the gallery before, unlike big permanent exhibitions the gallery usually has some sorting on anyway

A garden of works of the most endearing to the most surprising .. to go without moderation. Guided tours with passion.

Museum of private contemporary art.Beautiful architecture.collection permanent plus guest.

Awesome. ... an extra place, works breathtaking! Amateur contemporary art. ... go!

The Lambert Collection has taken up residence in a very beautiful building in Avignon. I have been going back several times to see exhibitions and each time I am satisfied with my visit. 1. Because the exhibits are of high quality and 2. The place is very beautiful. This afternoon, I could see an amazing Robert Combas exhibition!

Superb building, always top exhibits, a warm welcome and precise and complete information

Beautiful place beautifully restored The collections are well presented

Very calm relaxed place.
Waiters are very relaxed to
The food was very good, the desert was very good

We spend more then we planned but no regets at all

I only came for a conference, and our entire group was quickly guided to the conference room in the basement, but the little I saw from this place left me speechless: a brilliant mix of minimalist and modern works of art, which here and there rub shoulders with enough WTF pieces ...
I totally understand those who feast on the Lambert Collection.

Very open place, always interesting exhibitions ... Amazing such a beautiful place dedicated to contemporary art in a city of medium size!

Important collection of contemporary art donated to the French state with some really interesting pieces.

Very nice exhibition
The cartels offer beautiful texts to enter the works.

Beautiful place but still a little disappointed with the exhibition

I came to the wonderful restaurant Le Violette next door, in the courtyard of Collection Lambert, was intrigued by the "sign art" on the building and the outdoor installations, visible from my table, so decided to visit here. Yes, 10 is a little steep for a maze of exhibit halls, and I understand there are renovations, but it truly didn't bother me. Unlike some other French galleries, here staff are super friendly, and some, amazingly, even speak some English, as besides the two temporary exhibitions, the signage under the rest of the actual exhibits was in French only, and that is disappointing for a Festival participating gallery that happily takes rather high tourist dollar. Two very good temporary exhibitions on at the moment, Brazilian artist Vik Muniz, using contemporary images of us today, whilst utilising the decoupage technique, to reproduce some of the Great Italian masters, really impressive even to an atheist. The legends and myths made up of us, contemporary humans - strangely moving. Basquiat, Matisse and Picasso exhibition was curated in a really interesting way - I am not a huge fan of all of them, besides Matisse, but I really enjoyed some of the juxtapositions here. Well worth the visit, and whilst there do not miss the fantastic Le Violette restaurant (unconnected to the museum per se), with exemplary service (in English and other languages too) and wonderful food.

really a very nice place where you don't eat really well. very discreet staff and efficient service.

Nice outing for a little afternoon in the city center

Super holiday camp for children, curators at the top and magnificent exhibitions.

Wonderful space, large exposition with a variety of different artists, works, and media (photo, film, audio, sculpture...). Accessible and well worth the admission.

Beautiful permanent collection as well as temporary (Nan Goldin). Nice place.

very nice contemporary center where the staff is welcoming and professional, I recommend

The collection of the Fondation Lambert, modern art, is definitely worth it! Never seen a bad exhibition. And a fresh place to cool off during the warm summer

Valid set up in a building that deserves a visit in itself

Amazing collection. Stop at restaurant on way out. Equally delicious.

Always interesting exhibits, like the contemporary art and indispensable good for a discovery as

Don't waste your time here. No really, we love art in all it's forms and visit galleries all over the world and we are not narrow minded. The items we saw in this building range from simple coloured paper cut outs such as a child would do to interior decoration with no more skill or interest than your average decorator is capable of. By far the most interesting objects in the whole place were the flashing exit signs!

My favorite museum of all times, I come here every so often and am never disappointed

A magical place, mixing art and culture, to visit alone or with family.

I am delighted to have visited this place, loved it! It was great. We had a group tour which was very interesting and educational!

Very beautiful place and extremely well designed Contemporary art center. the welcome is pleasant and professional, do not hesitate to have a guide accompany you to savor and know the works instead. good discovery to all!

Beautiful private mansion and collection of modern art. Lack of explanation as to the context of most of the works (permanent collection)

An excellent collection that is well worth a visit. Varied and more extensive than you think.

I just love it.
The building is a beautiful setting.
Eclectic and quality collections.
It's a happiness ...

Always novelties, contemporary originalities, and risk taking. Often interesting choices.

A place so beautiful for works that often wonders if they deserve so many respects.

Different exhibitions from one period to another. It's always nice to have a ride on Sunday. It takes 2 hours to visit and enjoy

to see if we appreciate the minimalist and conceptual art

Great exhibition and the staff working there are very pleasant

Nice exhibition space. Interesting bookshop. Cafe in the square.

Interesting exhibitions. Especially that of young artists

A private collection museum for lovers of contemporary art

Beautiful private museum. Very nice collection of modern and contemporary art. The building is also very beautiful even if it is not really functional: we get lost in the labyrinth of corridors.
The temporary exhibitions are uneven: sometimes there are things you wonder if it's still art, it's so purely conceptual.

Beautiful place in Avignon intramural: on 3 levels, a permanent exhibition with works to see and others less (perso monochromes I had a hard time: a painting painted in white and that's all ...) and exhibitions temporary according to the period: positive balance, almost 2h for 8 the entry

We were delighted by the exhibition of Yvon Lambert in the old prison of Avignon. We had been there in the summer, with our 5 year old and everyone seemed welcome.

Years later, we hoped to live the same welcoming experience in the "new" Yvon Lambert space. We had the most exclusive experience of all our cultural tours. No drinking or snacking on a cookie for our 2 year old son. Obligation to introduce ourselves into a torrid inner courtyard to be able to sustain it and quench our thirst.

What consistency in the middle of this exhibition retracing the journey of photographers in love with marginalized people.

To sum up: absolutely KIDS UNFRIENDLY and UPTIGHT space.

Unfortunately, it is this type of unpleasant atmosphere of the reception at the start that can distract ordinary people from contemporary art.

Beautiful collection in a charming place, very beautiful discovery!

Attention there can be expos in the basement and we can miss if we are not vigilant.

Beautiful room we came in the framework of the festival frames

Beautiful super interesting and inspiring exhibitions. Museum of contemporary art

Always a visit and essential exhibitions during your Avignon escapades

You have to like the abstract or the fashions. Otherwise, the restaurant is pleasantly concrete and charming, although a little expensive for the city. But hey, we are among ourselves.
