Foundation CAB is located in Saint-Paul-De-Vence in the south of France. The museum doubles as a guesthouse for artist residencies. Guests will stay among a unique display of minimalist and conceptual art in the beautifully designed 1950s building.
This location is the second venue of CAB, which was originally founded in 2012 in Brussels, Belgium, by collector Huber Bonnet. It is home to one of the largest collections of modern art in the world. The foundation was refurbished by Charles Zana, an interior architect and designer. Complete with lush surrounding gardens, the Fondation CAB boasts breathtaking views of the Cap d'Antibes peninsula. Visitors can roam through the several exhibition spaces, a bookstore, a restaurant and stay in one of four distinct guest rooms.
