The Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain is a Paris-based nonprofit organization focused on promoting contemporary art through exhibitions, commissions, and events. Since relocating to Paris in 1994, it has operated from a light-filled building designed by Jean Nouvel, serving as both a creative space for artists and a public venue that broadens access to contemporary art. Each year the foundation curates themed or solo exhibitions and commissions new work, contributing to a significant public collection and organizing programs such as Nomadic Nights, which explore connections between the visual arts and performing arts. The organization also curates and disseminates exhibitions and its collection internationally, enhancing its profile abroad while engaging audiences in France. The foundation operates within the arts sector and positions itself as a promoter of contemporary creation and public understanding of the arts, serving artists and the general public in Paris and beyond.
