MuMo - Frac
The MuMo - Frac museum truck has been traveling the roads of France since 2017, reaching out to all residents with works from the Fonds régionaux d'art contemporain (Frac), as well as the Centre national des arts plastiques (Cnap).
"Pump up the Volume" exhibition
An exhibition conceived by Ingrid Brochard as part of the 7th thematic edition of lille3000, "Fiesta"..
From April 26 to July 30, 2025, the MuMo - Frac will be crisscrossing the European Metropolis of Lille, meeting 8,000 visitors to explore the links between music and contemporary art.
The"Pump up the Volume!" exhibition brings together works from the collections of the Cnapthe Frac Grand Large - Hauts-de-Francethe Frac Picardie - Hauts-de-Francethe Frac Franche-Comtéthe LaM - Lille Métropole Musée d'art moderne, d'art contemporain et d'art brut and the Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac.
By questioning the links between music and contemporary art, this exhibition immerses us in a unique, daring multi-sensory world that fully embraces the power of our sensibilities and offers us new perspectives on the role of art, the complexity of our existences and the mysteries of life.

Regional mediators accompany these new exhibitions on the ground, to create moments of discovery, practice and sharing with local residents. Training courses, tours, open houses, art workshops and restitutions-vernissages are organized every week for around 500 participants.


Interview with designer matali crasset
What inspired you to design this new traveling museum?
matali crasset: I like to work on things that don't exist, to find new logics and insert life into them, or more precisely, living together. The idea was to create an intermediary space between the exhibition space dedicated to contemporary art and the outdoor space, so as to create hospitality and conviviality around the expanding truck. Like a circus that arrives on the village square and gives it a double reality, the truck magically opens up and doubles in size. Wings spread out on either side to protect outdoor workshop and exhibition areas, where visitors can settle in before or after their visit.
How did you imagine this space?
m.c.: I wanted to encourage something fluid and easy to implement. The additional outdoor spaces I propose open up at the same time as the truck. After that, all that's left to do is combine the seats. As for the interior, I wanted to transform the truck's standard universe into a warm and welcoming place. Some of the works will be placed and hung in the middle of the showroom, in the "workbench" area. It's not just a display tool: you can open drawers or take things out during your visit. This system encourages mediation that listens carefully and adapts to the dynamics of each group. On either side of the workbench, on the walls, we enter the world of the "cabinet of curiosities". The idea here is to show lots of little things, with a certain richness and diversity, so that artists and works of art can coexist.
What does the challenge of mobility mean to you?
m.c.: The challenge of mobility was to start with a standard truck and give it the possibility of both spatial expansion and magic. The vertical expansion of the 1st MuMo perhaps provoked something more exceptional, but I like the idea of a horizontal expansion for the MuMo - Frac. It's like opening a door, reaching out to people, inviting them in. This desire for accessibility had to be visible from the outside.
