A vibrant tribute to this iconic musical movement

The new exhibition DISCO is a vibrant tribute to this iconic musical movement. Emerging in Black, Latino and queer underground clubs, disco evolved in the 1970s into a powerful cultural phenomenon centred on freedom, inclusivity and self-expression.

Move through hundreds of disco tracks, videos, artworks, fashion pieces and design objects, and experience disco’s unifying power for yourself. Featuring works by Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, Kwame Brathwaite, Michael Abramson, Meryl Meisler and many others.

On view from 10 October 2026 to 22 August 2027.

This exhibition is adapted from the original exhibition created by the Musée de la Musique – Philharmonie de Paris, where it was presented from 14 February to 17 August 2025.
