The Collection: A Sports Meeting

In resonance with the passage of the Olympic flame, the Fondation presents in the famous building of Frank Gehry, "The Collection: A Sports Meeting".  
A selection of works from our Collection is on display at the second level of the building. In their polyphony, they offer a poetic and offbeat look around the theme of sport. From Galleries 9 to 11, the works of five French and international artists are brought together.
