- The museum plans to lend 4,000 to 6,000 works annually, staging collaborations such as Grand Palais shows and expanding its network beyond Málaga with planned sites in Brussels and Seoul.
- An exceptional reopening tied to Art Basel Paris is scheduled for October 22, 24 and 25, featuring art, music and special performances.
- Work includes façade renewal, safety and accessibility improvements, and a targeted reduction of the energy bill by about 40%.
