Consortium Museum

What Consortium Museum does

Consortium Museum is a non-profit contemporary art museum headquartered at 37 rue de Longvic, Dijon, in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region of France. The institution operates as a single-site cultural venue with a small team of approximately 9 employees, presenting a rotating program of curated contemporary art exhibitions. Current and upcoming exhibitions include "L'Almanach 26" (July 2026 – March 2027), curated by Franck Gautherot, Seungduk Kim, Stéphanie Moisdon and Éric Troncy, and "The Wing – La Mer" (May 2026 – March 2027), curated by Joe Bradley and Tobias Pils. The museum also presents an off-site exhibition, "The Wild Ones" by Ángela Ferrari, running July–September 2026.

The museum's portfolio extends beyond exhibitions into educational programming (Académie Conti, including Sunday Funday family events), cultural programming (film screenings), publications (books and a magazine), and a "Nouveaux Commanditaires" commissioning program. It serves multiple segments: the general public and art enthusiasts (primary), families, school and group visitors, and a tiered patron and supporter base including Les Amis du Consortium and the Asia Pacific Society for Consortium Museum. Commercial revenue lines include an on-site librairie (bookstore), the consortiummuseumshop.com e-commerce platform, and venue privatization for private and corporate events.

The business model is a nonprofit hybrid: admissions and on-site retail, supplemented by donations and memberships through patron societies, publishing and merchandise sales, and B2B venue rental. Distribution is primarily regional (Dijon area and broader Bourgogne-Franche-Comté) with global reach limited to e-commerce merchandise and international patron fundraising via the Asia Pacific Society. No revenue, funding, or financial figures are publicly disclosed. The museum is actively operating with a forward-dated exhibition calendar extending into 2027, indicating institutional continuity.

Direct peers

• Centre d'Art Contemporain de la Villa Arson (Nice): French contemporary art center combining exhibitions, artist residencies, and an art school. Comparable as a regional French contemporary art institution with educational mission similar to Consortium Museum's Académie Conti.
• Le Magasin (Grenoble): Contemporary art center in a former industrial site in Grenoble. Comparable as a French regional venue with rotating international contemporary exhibitions and educational programming.
• Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain: Private Paris foundation dedicated to contemporary art exhibitions and artist commissions. Comparable in its focus on contemporary exhibitions, publications, and curated programming, though with a larger Paris-based footprint.
• MAC Lyon (Musée d'Art Contemporain de Lyon): Regional French contemporary art museum with a curated rotating exhibition program and public education mission. Most directly comparable to Consortium Museum in scale, role as a regional contemporary art institution, and audience mix.
• LaM (Lille Métropole Musée d'art moderne, d'art contemporain et d'art brut): French regional museum combining modern, contemporary, and outsider art with strong educational programming. Closely comparable to Consortium Museum in mission, scale, and regional French positioning.
• FRAC (Fonds Régional d'Art Contemporain): Network of regional French contemporary art collections with exhibition and educational programming. Shares Consortium Museum's regional-museum positioning, patronage model, and reliance on public support.

Broad incumbents

• Centre Pompidou: France's flagship modern and contemporary art museum in Paris. It is a comparable institution by mission (curated contemporary art exhibitions, education, publishing) but operates at vastly larger scale and national/international reach, making it a broad incumbent reference for Consortium Museum.
• Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris: Municipal Paris museum dedicated to 20th and 21st century art. Comparable curatorial mandate (modern/contemporary exhibitions, education, publications) but at materially larger scale and budget than Consortium Museum.
• Palais de Tokyo: Major Paris-based contemporary art center focused on living artists and experimental curation. Directly comparable curatorial philosophy (rotating exhibitions, international artists, education) but at significantly larger scale and budget than Consortium Museum.

Regional players

• MAMCO (Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain, Geneva): Swiss contemporary art museum focused on post-1960s work with rotating exhibitions. Comparable by curatorial focus and scale, but operates in a different country from Consortium Museum's French Dijon base.
