Fondation Cartier

This is a special place. The fine jeweler Cartier commissioned Pritzker Architecture Prize-winning architect Jean Nouvel to design a headquarters for its art foundation, and the result in an airy glass and steel structure. Once you enter the building -- passing under a vertical plant wall -- you will encounter a range of themed exhibitions from both French and international artists. The foundation is known for presenting art from stars better known for their success in other fields, like Patti Smith or David Lynch. There is also a wild-looking garden surrounding the building, which is a pleasure to walk though.
