The announcement comes just two weeks after the opening of its new exhibition, “Gustave Fayet, collector and creator: Icons of Modern Art”, on view from October 9 through March 8, 2027. The public can also discover Open Space #19, dedicated to artist Mohammad Alfaraj. Visitors who had planned to spend the weekend exploring these exhibitions will therefore have to change their plans.

For now, the Fondation Louis Vuitton makes no explicit reference to the demonstrations in its announcement. Its closure comes, however, as other players in the art world take similar steps, including the Perrotin galleries and the Art Basel Paris fair. The foundation lists opening hours of 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, October 23, but is effectively inviting visitors to choose another date for their Saturday outing.
