法国政府近日宣布，将关闭卢森堡博物馆（Musée du Luxembourg），博物馆与法国参议院共同位于卢森堡宫内。近日博物馆举办了蒂芙尼玻璃展，展览将于1月17日闭幕。此举意味着将削减25个全职职位和75个兼职职位。

      据报道，法国参议院对博物馆管理者与私营公司SVO共同分享利益的做法表示不满。参议院议长Gérard Larcher曾形容与SVO的关系“乌烟瘴气”。

      博物馆与SVO合作以来，举办了Modigliani, Botticelli及华盛顿菲利普斯藏品展等，已经吸引了550万参观者。博物馆的突然关闭意味着计划中的展览” Boats and the Impressionists”（船和印象派）已被取消。

PARIS—The French government has announced that it will close the Musée du Luxembourg, which shares space in the Luxembourg Palace with the French Senate, after its current exhibition of Tiffany glass closes on Jan. 17. The move will cut 25 full-time and 75 part-time positions.

      According to reports, the French Senate disagreed with museum managers about sharing profits from the project with SVO, the private company that manages the museum. Senate president Gérard Larcher last year described his relationship with SVO as “un vrai micmac” (“a real mess”).

      The museum has attracted 5.5 million visitors with shows covering Modigliani, Botticelli, and selections from Washington D.C.’s Phillips Collection since it was turned over to SVO. The sudden closure of the museum means that two planned exhibitions, one entitled “Boats and the Impressionists,” have been canceled.
