Yaacov Agam's interior design from 1972-1974 for President Pompidou's residence at the Elysée Palace, on the museum's fourth floor
The musicians will perform as part of the centre's Jeudi's (Thursdays) series on March 13. Liszt Music Academy department heads Károly Binder and Pál Richter, together with music instructor Mihály Borbély, have put together a programme of music to be played in front of works by Picasso, Vasarely and Beuys
Jeudi's was launched four years ago by teaching staff at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art on the fourth and fifth floors of the Centre Pompidou. The aim of the programme was to promote important works of contemporary art to students of French and international performing arts academies. Jeudi's now attracts an audience of about 1,200 per event.
