STARTING 14th MAY 2026
FAMM (Female Artists of the Mougins Museum), the world’s first museum outside the USA with a permanent collection dedicated to women artists, founded by the philanthropist and collector Christian Levett and situated in the heart of the historic village of Mougins between Cannes and Nice, is completely renewing its permanent collection exhibition. Previously spanning from Impressionism to contemporary, the museum’s journey through art history now begins earlier, with the Baroque period. The museum will feature an exceptional work over two metres tall, dating from c. 1649 -50, created by the pioneering artist: Artemisia Gentileschi, now regarded as an icon of feminist art history.
Artemisia Gentileschi, A Woman Presenting Her Child to Saint Blaise, c.1649-50, oil on canvas, 205.6 x 152.5cm.
