Female Artists of the Mougins Museum

The Femmes Artistes du Musee de Mougins, FAMM, is a private museum that opened in 2024 in the Provencal hilltop village of Mougins above Cannes. It is Europe's first museum devoted entirely to 20th- and 21st-century women artists. The founder is British collector Christian Levett, who previously ran the neighboring Mougins Museum of Classical Art and, after its closure in 2024, decided to refocus his collection. Spread across three floors of a restored old-town building, the display shows around 100 works including pieces by Joan Mitchell, Lee Krasner, Helen Frankenthaler, Tracey Emin and Cecily Brown. The opening was discussed internationally as an important corrective to the historic underrepresentation of women artists in Western museums.
