Louis Vuitton Foundation

In 2014 a new cultural place has open its door in Paris. Created in 2006 by some sponsors, the mission of the foundation is to promote contemporary art. The foundation hosts both permanent et temporary exhibitions. The building itself is an architectural gem, built by architect Franck Gehry.

The collections result from a combination of works owned by LVMH and Bernard Arnault. They will be displayed between the opening time in 2014 until September next year. Highlights of this collection includes works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Gilbert & George and Jeff Koons. For site-specific installations, the foundation commissioned works by Ellsworth Kelly, Olafur Eliasson, Janet Cardiff and George Bures Miller, Sarah Morris, Taryn Simon, Cerith Wyn Evans and Adrián Villar Rojas.
