La Piscine - Musée d'art et d'industrie André-Diligent is a museum in Roubaix, in Upper France, with a rich collection of applied and fine arts from the modern era. Inaugurated in 2001, the museum is housed in a 19th century indoor swimming pool built in the "Art Déco" style, built between 1927 and 1932 to offer the population a high quality sports and hygienic service. The museum's collection aims to abolish any kind of hierarchy and subordination between applied and traditional fine arts. The museum contains objects dating from 1835, most of which were collected from a textile factory that once stood next door. Elements of literature, science and fine arts have been added to enhance the collection of historical fabrics and to form a large exhibition dedicated to the fruitful alliance between applied arts and industry. Some of the most famous paintings and sculptures found at La Piscine include works by Rodin, Picasso, Claudel, Gérôme, Stark, van Dongen and other contemporaries, all visible through the striking Art Deco frame represented by the architecture.
