'Le Mas démasqué' et 'The Making of the MAS'
The story of the MAS is one long in the telling. It is a story of the city, its river and its connections with the world told through the medium of its various collections. However, it is also the story of creating a museum for the city and how that museum came into being. These books give a comprehensive explanation of its genesis, one that was not at all without obstacles set in its path.
The MAS was conceived as a tower of tales. Taking the polyphonic story of the MAS as its example, these books were conceived as a mosaic of voices. The Making of the MAS explaines the history of the museum's genesis. The MAS Revealed examines the relocation, the collection and the concept underpinning the MAS.
