At the start of the 2026 school year, the Fondation Cartier will unveil a major culinary project on Rue de Rivoli. Chef Anne-Sophie Pic, the only woman in France to hold three Michelin stars, will open her new Parisian restaurant there following the closure of La Dame de Pic. This new chapter will unfold in two phases: beginning September 4, 2026, with the opening of the “Utopic” bar, followed on September 18, 2026, by the opening of her exceptional restaurant, “Anne-Sophie Pic Paris.” This new addition strengthens the dialogue between haute cuisine and contemporary art at the heart of the institution.

On September 20, 2026, Sofia Coppola will be in attendance—in conjunction with the exhibition at the Palace of Versailles dedicated to her film “Marie Antoinette,” which opens on September 22, 2026—for a book-signing at the Fondation Cartier for Contemporary Art bookstore. The American director will be signing copies of Andrew Durham’s new photography book, “Making Marie Antoinette.” Open to the public; no reservation required.

The Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain has moved from the 14th arrondissement to a new emblematic location: the Palais Royal, in the heart of Paris. This new space, designed by architect Jean Nouvel, continues the foundation's ambition to support contemporary creation in all its forms - art, design, photography, architecture, science and the performing arts. Through temporary exhibitions, performances and encounters, the Fondation Cartier offers a program open to the major issues of our time, while affirming a dialogue between artists, audiences and disciplines. The Fondation Cartier's contemporary-design building is set in an exceptional heritage site, close to Parisian and international audiences.
