La Fondation Louis Vuitton est un musée d'art contemporain ouvert en 2014 et financé par le groupe de luxe LVMH. Le bâtiment déconstructiviste de Frank Gehry, enveloppé de douze voiles de verre incurvées surplombant un ensemble de blocs blancs surnommé « l'iceberg », se dresse à côté du Jardin d'Acclimatation, dans le Bois de Boulogne. Réparties sur onze galeries et des terrasses en toiture, ses salles présentent la collection de la fondation ainsi que de grandes expositions temporaires et des commandes conçues spécialement pour le lieu par des artistes tels qu'Olafur Eliasson et Ellsworth Kelly.
