Tours at Centre Pompidou

Masterpieces of Modern Art

Ten Lizes (1963), Andy Warhol

2-hour tour. 4 person maximum.
The Pompidou Center's National Museum of Modern Art has an unparalleled collection of 20th-century European painting and sculpture. This tour takes advantage of the breadth and depth of this stunning collection by studying the principle avant-garde movements from 1900-1945: fauvism, cubism, dada, and surrealism. What were the central ideas behind each of these innovative approaches to art making? We answer this question by focusing on the pioneers of each "ism": Matisse, Picasso, Braque, Duchamp, Dalí, and Miró. Through close examination of selected masterpieces, we make sense of a diverse, seemingly chaotic, but always fascinating period in the history of art.

Rates. €105 for individuals, or €90 per person for parties of two or more. Includes price of admission. €20 surcharge to guarantee that your party has a one-on-one seminar with the instructor, without other parties.

Highlight of Our Fifteen Days in Paris

We wanted to let you all know how very much we enjoyed and appreciated the architectural tour of the Louvre with Kristen.....It was the highlight of our fifteen days in Paris. Kristen is knowledgeable and personable. Her passion for French architecture and the Louvre and her depth of knowledge about French art, architecture and the decorative arts brought alive both the history and the architecture of this magnificent building in a way that kept us enthralled and chatting about details for over two nonstop hours.
