The Latvian National Museum of Art in Riga presents 'Florence and Daniel Guerlain’s Donation and Gifts to Centre Pompidou', a group exhibition of contemporary drawings drawn from the celebrated French collectors’ gift to the Centre Pompidou. The exhibition runs from July 25 to November 1, 2026, and includes a selection of works from the donation, which comprises over 1,200 pieces. This marks the first time the collection is shown in the Baltic region.

The Signal

The show underscores the growing international circulation of major private collections and the strategic role of Baltic institutions in hosting works from prestigious European donors. For collectors and curators, the exhibition offers a focused view of contemporary drawing as a medium, highlighting the Guerlains’ commitment to supporting emerging and mid-career artists. It also signals the Latvian National Museum’s ambition to position itself as a venue for top-tier international loans.
