The Fondation Louis Vuitton was designed by architect Frank Gehry.
The Fondation Louis Vuitton, created on the initiative of Bernard Arnault, CEO of LVMH, was designed by architect Frank Gehry. This great glass vessel with its curved lines has found its place among Paris's architectural highlights. In the midst of this green setting, this artistic temple rises elegantly. Its collections and temporary exhibitions showcase all forms of contemporary art. The foundation houses eleven exhibition rooms, a concert hall, a restaurant, a bookshop and three terraces with unparalleled views over Paris.

Members' reviews on FOUNDATION LOUIS VUITTON
The ratings and reviews below reflect the subjective opinions of members and not the opinion of The Little Witty.
An impressive building, all façades made of curved glass, like the achievements of Calatrava. It was designed by Frank Gehry, father of world-famous Guggenheim museum Bilbao. It is well highlighted (you can step back compared to the building) in this part of the Bois de Boulogne. Currently (until the end of August), a beautiful exhibition with works of contemporary Chinese artists.
although it is a pleasant place for a walk, but it lacks permanent collection of works. It is normal given it is not strictly a museum but as a result one remains on our hungry.
Construction is spectacular but not breathtaking.
It is quite ordinary, already seen.
Nothing exciting and unforgettable. It has nothing to do nothing, but the MUCEM in Marseille east thousand times more exciting that this big boat that finally does not get any emotion.
Petit bémol : les collections ne sont pas extrêmement fournies mais les expositions temporaires sont réussies et très intéressantes.
On se perd dans le dédale des salles et des étages. Partout le volume et la hauteur sont saisissants, avec des puits de lumière qui éclairent les œuvres.
J'ai visité une exposition intéressante consacrée à des artistes chinois, qui tous traitaient de l'émergence de l'individu qui se dégage de l'emprise du collectif, une problématique propre à leur culture.
