The Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain turns 40, with countless memories and as many futures. An important anniversary, at the brink of a new era, and the opportunity to tell its tale in an exceptional series of podcasts.
But as Alain Dominique Perrin, President and founder of the Fondation, puts it so well: “You don’t archive your memories like you archive your files.” So, let’s trace back this ever-alive story in a different way. And let us be guided by the undulating memories and facetious voices of AD Perrin and of those without whom none of this would have happened.
From the first exploits of Jouy-en-Josas to the revolutions of Raspail, unforgettable exhibitions and lesser-known anecdotes, this series, with interviews never heard before, gives shape to this counter-story, this monument of contemporary art that has never stopped making a difference, always defying conventions.

With time the Fondation became diverse: multidisciplinary, international and above all nomadic. And we let ourselves be led by the latter, this essential value and its incarnation in the Nomadic nights, to finish exploring this unique history, reflecting 40 decisive years.
So, at a time when art itself does not play with the same cards, what future is the Cartier House looking towards?
Fascinating and thrilling, this last episode refuses to delve into nostalgia and rather reasserts the visionary strength of the Fondation and its significance in the world of contemporary art.
Along with our witnesses, we cultivate the past to sow the seeds of a desirable future.
