1A museum accessible to everyone / Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection
In the heart of Paris, the Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection presents part of the contemporary art collection amassed by François Pinault over the past forty years. In the historic building of the former Bourse de Commerce (com-modities exchange), restored and transformed by Japanese architect Tadao Ando, a dialogue emerges between heritage and contemporary creation.
Through the prism of a collector’s gaze on the art of today and in an effort to increase public awareness and understanding, the Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection offers regular exhibitions and hangings of contemporary art, with artist com-missions, cartes blanches and a rich programme of cultural events: lectures, screenings, concerts and performances.Open to everyone, the Bourse de Commerce — Pinault Collection strives to offer an accessible and inclusive pro-gramme of events in line with its exhibitions. Finally, the Bourse de Commerce – Pinault Collection is equip-ped with all the necessary facilities to ensure that everyone’s visit is a pleasant and stress-free experience. Certain areas of this listed building with historic monument status are subject to preservation constraints and therefore, do not feature standard accessibility norms.
This booklet explains the visiting conditions and resources put at your disposal in order to facilitate your access and visit to the museum.
