The Société des Amis du Centre Pompidou, the successor to the Société des Amis du Musée du Luxembourg created in 1903, has helped promote the collections now held at the Musée National d'Art Moderne with passion and generosity for 120 years. Initially housed at the Palais de Tokyo before moving to the Centre Pompidou in 1977, the museum has continued to benefit from the support of the Amis in developing a modern and contemporary art collection that has become one of the finest in the world.
This book is a fitting tribute to the history of this community of art lovers - collectors, gallery owners, and artists - and to its leading French and international philanthropists, at a time when national collections are opening up to new horizons.
