The Museum of the Pinault Collection in Paris

This richly illustrated and documented volume sheds light on the birth of the Pinault Collection museum in Paris. The book tells and illustrates the story of an emblematic monument transformed into a contemporary art museum, designed today to exhibit, share and inspire the collection that François Pinault has gathered for more than 40 years.

The book traces the evolution, both respectful and radical, of a unique building with little-known heritage. Through all the actors of the project, and in particular by the voices of Tadao Ando, ​​Lucie Niney and Thibault Marca, the architects of its transformation, and that of Pierre-Antoine Gatier, the chief architect of Historical Monuments who ensured its restoration.
