This museum is dedicated to collect, safeguard and preserve objects and techniques related to moving images, offering extraordinary conditions for the study in this field.
Exhibitions about pre-cinema, photography and cinema are displayed here, and it temporarily organizes activities and the publication of interesting documents.
This museum intends to be a cultural project beyond a simple museum where elements from the past are preserved. It is an avant-garde technical workshop as well.
Visiting this museum is a journey through the history of image from the pre-cinema age until the numeric imagen, documenting historical moments and breakthroughs that torn down important walls and beliefs, cheating sensorial perceptions.
