András Szántó in conversation with Laurence des Cars and Souleymane Bachir Diagne at Reid Hall in Paris

To mark the 60th anniversary of Columbia University’s Global Center in Paris, András Szántó moderated a discussion with Louvre President Laurence des Cars and Columbia University philosopher Souleymane Bachir Diagne on November, 27, 2024, on the future of museums in general and universal museums in particular. The discussion opened up hopeful spaces of opportunity for the museum, notably by suggesting that there can be a more lateral, less zero-sum approach to universalism, based upon complementarity and reciprocal exchange between cultures across the globe.
