{Opening of Louis Vuitton Foundation}

Conceived by the architect Frank Gehry, the “father” of the Guggenheim museum of Bilbao, the Louis Vuitton Foundation is the fruit of the willpower of Bernard Arnault and of the City of Paris. This magnificent building, situated south of the Jardin d’Acclimatation, will be entirely dedicated to art and culture, thus adhering to the politics of the Group’s patronage. If the architecture of the Foundation has already surprised a few, the art collection on display will be just as exceptional !
