On the occasion of its thirtieth anniversary, the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain will release two richly illustrated publications, which will then be gathered in a box set in October. These publications present the history of the institution through its main watchwords: daring, curiosity and commitment to artists.
The first publication, to be released in May, attests to the uniqueness of this exhibition space. Featuring interviews with the major figures of the history of the Fondation Cartier, it presents in images thirty years of exhibitions and exceptional events. This publication also invites the reader to discover the glass and steel building designed by Jean Nouvel and its evolution over time, changes of season and through the exhibitions it welcomes, revealing its extraordinary adaptability, which is a source of inspiration for artists.
Volume II brings together the work of the numerous artists, thinkers and authors who have contributed to the institution since its creation. This lavishly illustrated publication favours a playful, nonlinear reading of its near two hundred entries and invites the reader to delve into a history full of surprise, diversity and eclecticism.
