AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Culture Under Pressure: With 646 demonstrations planned across France on Saturday, the Louvre, Orsay, Picasso and Orangerie museums, and the Grand Palais are set to close amid fears of renewed violence. Art Basel Paris has also ended early, cancelling its weekend programme. The protests began with students demanding better-funded schools and more teachers, then grew into a wider movement over living costs and public services. Record-Breaking Monet: Claude Monet’s long-hidden Iris sold for €50 million at Sotheby’s Paris, setting a record for an artwork sold at auction in France. The sale comes during the centenary year of the artist’s death, marked by two Paris exhibitions.
