Médiathèque de Monaco

Introduction

Founded in 1909 by the Sovereign Ordinance of Prince Albert I, the public library, renamed Louis Notari in 1980 in honour of the Monegasque poet and grammarian, fulfils more than one role. It's a public library accessible to everyone, offering documentation, information, education, and leisure collections, but also preserves old and precious collections. It has been operating as a national library since 1925.

A vital fixture in Monegasque cultural life, the Multimedia Library of Monaco organises meetings, conferences, exhibitions, concerts, film screenings and literary and photography workshops throughout the year, which have proven highly successful among a wide range of audiences

The Multimedia Library of Monaco is currently spread over four sites

  • The Bibliothèque Louis Notari (Louis Notary Library) - 8 rue Louis Notari
  • The Sonothèque - Vidéothèque (Audio Library and Video Library) - 2, rue Princesse Antoinette
  • The Bibliothèque Princesse Caroline - Ludothèque (Princess Caroline Library - Toys and Games Section) - 1, boulevard Albert Ier 
  • The Fonds patrimonial (Heritage Fund) - L'Hélios - 3, promenade Honoré II

This masterpiece of animation, made in France, tells the story of an unfinished painting. The characters, created by the painter, are at different stages of completion; the Toupins are finished characters, the Pafinis are waiting for their colour, and the Reufs are still just sketches. While the painter is away, the three groups get caught in a clash, and with the artist nowhere to be found, how will they settle this riff?The Painting is a love letter to art suitable for all ages; everyone will find themselves lost in Jean-François Laguionie’s magical world.
