Casino Luxembourg

Despite its name, this institution in the heart of Luxembourg City is a contemporary art centre rather than a gambling house, occupying a nineteenth-century social club building that once hosted the city's bourgeoisie. Its galleries stage changing exhibitions of emerging and established artists working in a wide range of media. The venue also runs an art library and public programmes aimed at demystifying modern art. The elegant historic rooms provide an unexpected backdrop for challenging, forward-looking work in the capital's cultural scene.
