How can a museum institution exist without its own building?
For example, the Pompidou Center will be closed for a large-scale restoration in mid-2023, and it is planned to open only in 2027. Can a museum, gallery, or art center do without a building and how can it continue its activities without it?
A museum is primarily a collection and a team. The building is an important element, but not a critical one.
There are many ways to solve the problem : temporary rental (PERMM Museum), using partner museum and non-museum sites (for example, there were practices of museum branches in shopping centers), creating a virtual branch in the network, working with urban spaces, etc.
Yes, they are not perfect, but they are quite working. So, Pompidou will definitely cope)
