The Fondation Louis Vuitton
Initiated by Bernard Arnault in 2006, the Fondation Louis Vuitton
in Paris opened to the public on October 27, 2014.
The Foundation embodies the myriad actions taken by the LVMH
group over the past 25 years in support of art, culture and heritage.
With its forceful impact and unique, groundbreaking design, the
building created by Frank Gehry is itself the first artistic statement
by the Fondation Louis Vuitton.
In addition to its permanent collection, the Foundation commissions
works from artists and organizes temporary exhibitions of modern
and contemporary art, along with multidisciplinary installations.
Since its opening the Fondation Louis Vuitton has hosted many
exihibitions such as The Morozov Collection. Icons of Modern Art,
Simon Hantaï. The Centenary Exhibition, Monet - Mitchell,
Basquiat x Warhol. Painting Four Hands, etc.
The Fondation Louis Vuitton project has adopted an exemplary
environmental approach and was chosen as a pilot project for new
HQE® (High Environmental Quality) guidelines applicable to cultural
buildings.
