M+ and Centre Pompidou announce multi-year partnership

Hong Kong’s M+ and the Centre Pompidou in Paris have signed a multi-year partnership agreement, formalising collaboration on joint curatorial research, exhibition development and sharing, co-commissions and displays, and collection exchange. The deal was signed earlier this month by Centre Pompidou president Laurent Le Bon and M+ director Suhanya Raffel, building on a memorandum of understanding signed in 2024. Plans include a “landmark exhibition” on French and Chinese culture to be shown at both institutions, first at the Centre Pompidou when it reopens in 2030 after renovations, and additional co-organised exhibitions at M+ starting in 2027. The partnership is supported by a four-year postdoctoral fellowship funded by the Huo Family Foundation, which says it has awarded more than $100 million to projects since launching in 2009, and includes new moving-image commissions to be shown on the M+ Facade and at the Centre Pompidou’s Massy hub from 2027.
