He created the Animation Recherche Confrontation (ARC) section at the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris in 1967, and directed it until 1972, establishing a unique museographic model that privileges the direct relationship between the visitor, the works and the artists. Pierre Gaudibert left behind an extraordinary legacy for the MAM, which now boasts a formidable collection of contemporary art. The exhibition is divided into three sections and is structured around the major moments in Pierre Gaudibert's life: his political and artistic commitment in the 1960s to the major conflicts of the time (the Vietnam War, the Chinese Cultural Revolution, the Arab-Israeli conflict of the Six-Day War, race riots in the United States, famine in India, May '68 in France); his shared opinion with critical artists of his generation, members of the Salon de Jeune Peinture who created Figuration Narrative and Supports/Surfaces (among others); his library that he built up throughout his life, a testimony to his commitment to the evolution of the museum concept. A radical vision of art in search of the zero degree of painting, the promotion of emerging artists of the 1960s, a commitment to making art and culture accessible to all. Such is the thinking of Pierre Gaudibert, who had a profound impact on the history of art and French museums.
