Kering founder Francois Pinault to display art collection in Paris Billionaire Frenchman François Pinault is set to open up his art collection to his native country for the first time. François Pinault made billions collecting luxury brands for his company's portfolio - Stella McCartney, Alexander McQueen, Saint Laurent and new acquisition Christopher Kane are just a few on its book - but the Frenchman also likes to amass art. The 76-year-old, whose son François-Henri is married to actress Salma Hayek and now runs the family business, has a world class art collection, pieces from which are set to be exhibited in Paris for the first time.

The former royal palace and prison where Marie Antoinette was held will play host to paintings, video installations, sculptures and photographs around a theme of captivity and imprisonment under the exhibition name À Triple Tour. In 2007 Pinault bought a lease on the Punta della Dogana in Venice, to house part of his 2,500-piece collection. He also purchased the nearby Palazzo Grassi in Venice to host one-off shows, and it is thought to be where his son François-Henri met Hayek and where they renewed their wedding vows.
