In October 2025, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain inaugurated its new spaces in the heart of Paris with Exposition Générale, an unprecedented presentation of its collection bringing together nearly 600 works by 100 artists. Richly illustrated and documented, the exhibition catalog offers a broad view of contemporary artistic creation, and highlights the profound and continuous connections that have been existing between the Fondation Cartier and the artists for more than 40 years.

Essays by the exhibition curators Grazia Quaroni and Béatrice Grenier, and by philosopher Emanuele Coccia, a conversation with the exhibition designers, Formafantasma, and texts on the artworks invite to delve deeper into the history of this collection reflecting the Fondation Cartier unique identity.
