== Expansion == === Regional branches === {{main|Centre Pompidou-Metz}} [[File:Metz (F) - Centre Pompidou - Außenansicht.jpg|thumb|The [[Centre Pompidou-Metz]]]] In 2010, the Centre Georges Pompidou opened a regional branch, the [[Centre Pompidou-Metz]], in [[Metz]] a city 250 kilometres east of [[Paris]]. The new museum is part of an effort to expand the display of contemporary arts beyond Paris's large museums. The new museum's building was designed by the architect [[Shigeru Ban]] with a curving and asymmetrical pagoda-like roof topped by a spire and punctured by upper galleries. The 77-metre central spire is a nod to the year the Centre Georges Pompidou of Paris was built – 1977. The [[Centre Pompidou-Metz]] displays unique, temporary exhibitions from the collection of the [[Musée National d'Art Moderne]], which is not on display at the main Parisian museum. Since its inauguration, the institution has become the most visited cultural venue in France outside Paris, accommodating 550,000 visitors/year.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.veilleinfotourisme.fr/frequentation-en-hausse-dans-les-musees-et-monuments-nationaux-en-2011-82338.kjsp?RH=1223377672109 |title=Official website of France tourism survey, 2011 Museum frequentation |access-date=30 December 2011 |language=fr |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130309033739/http://www.veilleinfotourisme.fr/frequentation-en-hausse-dans-les-musees-et-monuments-nationaux-en-2011-82338.kjsp?RH=1223377672109 |archive-date=9 March 2013 |url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.moselle-tourisme.com/espace-cdt-moselle/PDF/chiffres-cles-2011.pdf |title=Official website of Moselle tourism office, 2011 key numbers |page=12 |access-date=17 September 2019 |language=fr |archive-date=29 July 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130729000505/http://www.moselle-tourisme.com/espace-cdt-moselle/PDF/chiffres-cles-2011.pdf |url-status=live}}</ref> Launched in 2011 in [[Chaumont, Haute-Marne|Chaumont]], the museum for the first time went on the road to the French regions with a selection of works from the permanent collection.
