35 €

The Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, a pioneer in the field of philanthropy since its creation by the Maison Cartier in 1984, has set itself the mission of expanding the public’s access to contemporary creation, whose multiple forms it explores in complete freedom and independence. It offers artists from all around the world a framework for inspiration and expression, a place of experimentation and international visibility.

Voir venir, Venir voir celebrates the rich history of the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, its programming and Collections, and offers a visual chronicle of its forty-year commitment to artists.

In a text richly illustrated with photographs and archive documents, Alain Dominique Perrin tells the “real story” behind the creation of this pioneering first corporate foundation.

Philosopher Emanuele Coccia talks about the specificities of the Fondation’s artistic programming, its deep attachment to the living world and its rich, multi-faceted Collections.

An illustrated journey through over 160 exhibitions, punctuated by 12 selected stories of artists and major exhibitions, illustrate four decades of the Fondation Cartier’s commitment to contemporary creation.
