When I was 20 or 21, I bought a work of Art & Language of 1965 called Mirror Piece and installed it in my appartment in Paris.
After two or three days, I felt sad and stupid because I understood the limit imposed if these works were kept private.
They would be like a discussion that was kept secret.
Therefore I felt a responsibility to make this collection accessible to the widest possible public - The Private Museum of the Future, Cristina Bechtler interview with Philippe Méaille, 2016.
Château de Montsoreau-Museum of contemporary art project began in November 2014.
In June 2015, Philippe Méaille and Christian Gillet created a surprise in France, jointly announcing the signing of a long-term lease (between the Maine-et-Loire department and Philippe Méaille) on the Chateau de Montsoreau property.
The Château de Montsoreau-Museum of Contemporary Art becoming the first Château of the Loire Valley to be transformed into a museum of contemporary art.
Despite the desire of both parties to create an international museum of contemporary art, and the ability from Méaille to endowing it with the world's largest collection of works by the radical conceptualists of Art & Language, and to seize the opportunity to develop the international tourist audience of the Loire Valley, the announcement created controversy.
Frédéric Béatse, former Mayor of Angers, and socialist political leader, protests against what he calls « a sale of a jewel of the department to a private foreign player ».
Gérard Persin (mayor of Montsoreau), and Christian Gillet both reacted very quickly to these protests during a press conference.
Gérard Persin stated: « It is a pride to have been chosen to host a center of contemporary art of international stature ».
Christian Gillet put the project in its international ambition and potential development for the territory: « The idea of Philippe Méaille, connoisseur and lover of the site, is to install a center of contemporary art featuring his collection, already world famous and renowned, we have considered an interesting challenge ».
And Philippe Méaille clarified his intentions: « This public-private partnership appeared to us as an innovative solution that will be integrated into the Saumur territory in its entirety: Saumur and its agglomeration but also the nearby Fontevraud Abbey ».

For reasons of security due to political instability in Catalonia, Philippe Méaille announced that he decided to repatriate his collection in France to the Chateau de Montsoreau-Museum of Contemporary Art.
MACBA deplored the decision of Philippe Méaille not to renew his long-term agreement with the institution, and assured that the security of the collection is guaranteed, and that "Philippe Méaille arguments do not coincide at all with reality".
Voices emerged to denounce a pretext on the part of the collector, to repatriate the works of Art & Language in his museum, opened only one year before.
The Château de Montsoreau-Museum of Contemporary Art, is a museum of contemporary art privately owned by the French art collector Philippe Méaille.
It is in the Loire Valley in France.

A polity is a group of people who are brought together by any form of political agreement and who consider themselves as forming an autonomous unit.
The political agreement uniting the group may be of different types: it can be a written constitution or even the unwritten recognition and respect of a hierarchy within the group.
Depending on the size of the polity, it can be organized by a government or other, simpler forms of hierarchy.
It is important to realize that the term polity can be used to refer to big entities like states, empires, and kingdoms, but also to smaller units like chiefdoms.
What counts in calling a given group "a polity" is not its size nor the form of government it has.
To be called "a polity" a group must be an organized and autonomous group that has exclusive rights of use of a specific portion of land.

Test matches in cricket are the orignal and main form of international competition.
They last five days, and are thought to be the highest standard of play.
Test matches were invented in the 19th century as a competition between England and Australia.
The first officially recognised Test match took place on 15–19 March 1877 and was played between England and Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
Australia won by 45 runs.
A Test match to celebrate 100 years of Test cricket was held in Melbourne on 12–17 March 1977, in which Australia beat England by 45 runs—the same margin as that first Test.
That first tour match was followed by a second test match, which was won by England.
There were also a few games played against local teams, a tradition which continues today.
South Africa became the third team to play Test cricket in 1888–89, and there was a long period before other countries played test cricket.
The West Indies ('Windies') were the fourth test country: they played against England in London 1928 at Lords cricket ground.
New Zealand first played against England in 1930 in Christchurch.
The first Indian test side played England in 1932 in London at Lords.
When British India was partitioned, the new nation Pakistan was given test status in 1952, on the recommendation of India.
Their first test match was against India in Delhi.
They were followed by Sri Lanka in 1982.
There are also four more countries who have full test status: Zimbabwe (1992), Bangladesh (2000), Ireland  the Irish team represents both parts of Ireland – (2018), and Afghanistan (2018).
Of these only Bangladesh has played regularly against the longer-established nations.
There is a real gulf in playing standards between the top teams and the newcomers.
This explains why there have been no test series between the stronger test countries and the weaker countries.
A test series must be competitive for it to be commercially viable.
Television rights need to be sold, and spectators attracted to the matches.
Also, a country must be able to keep some cricket grounds to test standards.
It is clear that the sport of cricket spread mostly to countries of the former British Empire, with the notable exception of Canada (where cricket is just a minor sport).
On the other hand, it is a truly international sport, played by nations in Europe, Africa (parts of), the Caribbean, the Indian subcontinent and Oceania.

The Nawabs of Bengal (the Nawab Nizam of Bengal and Orissa) were the rulers of the provinces of Bengal and Orissa.
Between 1717 and 1772, they were the rulers of the  province of Bengal.
The last independent Nawab of Bengal, Siraj ud-Daulah, was betrayed in the Battle of Plassey by Mir Jafar.
He lost to the British, who in 1757, installed Mir Jafar on the throne and established itself as a political power in Bengal.
In 1765 the system of 'dual government' meant the Nawabs ruled on behalf of the British, and were puppets to the British.
In 1772 the system was abolished and Bengal was brought under direct control of the British.
In 1793, when the Nizamat (governorship) of the Nawab was also taken away from them, they remained as the pensioners of the British East India Company.
The last Nawab of Bengal, Mansur Ali Khan abdicated on 1 November 1880 in favour of his eldest son, Hassan Ali Mirza.

Ingentia is an early sauropod dinosaur from the Late Triassic of Argentina.
The type specimen of Ingentia, PVSJ 1086, was discovered in the Quebrada del Barro Formation of northwestern Argentina.
The only species, Ingentia prima, meaning "first huge one", as the taxon was one of the first very large sauropodomorphs to evolve, along with its close relative Lessemsaurus.
A second specimen, PVSJ 1087, was referred, containing five tail vertebrae, both the radius and ulna, a left calfbone and a right foot.
Ledumahadi (meaning "a giant thunderclap" in Sesotho language) is a sauropodomorph dinosaur from the Early Jurassic.
A quadruped, it was one of the first giant sauropodomorphs, reaching a weight of around , despite not having evolved columnar limbs like its later huge relatives.
Lessemsaurus is an extinct genus of sauropod dinosaur from the Triassic period.
It is unusual because it lived about 30 million years before the long-necked plant-eaters Diplodocus and Brachiosaurus lived.
The type species, L. sauropoides, was formally described by José Bonaparte in 1999.
It was found in the Los Colorados Formation of La Rioja Province, Argentina.
This dinosaur was around  long and was discovered in strata dating to the Norian stage, around 210 million years ago.
"What is really unexpected is that the lessemsaurids achieved their huge bodies independently of the gigantic sauropods like Brontosaurus and Diplodocus, which did indeed evolve later during the Jurassic.
The development of huge size wasn't just a one-off event for the sauropods, but rather different types of dinosaurs were able to become colossal".

A Wadati–Benioff zone is an area within the Earth's crust where earthquakes frequently occur.
The frequency of earthquakes in these areas is due to the convergence and subduction of tectonic plates.
According to the theory of plate tectonics lithospheric plates move towards each other along convergent plate boundaries.
When two plates collide, one is often submerged below the other.
They are referred as downgoing and overriding plates respectively.
When a downgoing plate (usually composed of oceanic lithosphere) submerges beneath an overriding plate shallow earthquakes occur at the plate boundary and deeper earthquakes occur in the downgoing plate as it sinks into the Earth.
The deep earthquakes caused by the downgoing plate form the Wadati–Benioff zone.
The deepest recorded earthquakes come from Wadati–Benioff zones and can extend to depths as much as 650 km (400 mi) deep.
In 1935 Kiyoo Wadati published research on earthquakes with deep foci and how they are apt to take place near the edges of continents.
Further analysis of earthquake foci and location was conducted by Hugo Benioff in 1945 where he developed a way to identify the boundary at which an earthquake was generated.
The dipping zone of seismic activity that they helped discover was named in their honor.

A missing person is a person who has disappeared and nobody seems to know where they are.
People can go missing for many reasons.
People disappear for many reasons.
These are some reasons why someone may go missing by choice:
Running away from home, often to escape from domestic abuse.
Mental illness or other ailments.
For example, a person with Alzheimer's Disease may wander out on their own, forgetting where they live, who their friends and family are, or even their own names.
Hiding from the police or courts (known as failure to appear).
Suicide in a location where they cannot be easily found.
Joining a cult or other religious organization that stops them from talking to people in the outside world.
To escape poverty, famine or natural disaster.
To avoid war or persecution during a genocide.
Staying too long with a parent or guardian that they do not normally live with.
Death by natural causes or an accident in a place where they cannot easily be found, such as in water.
Getting sold into slavery.
Murder, if the body is not found.
In some countries, governments have carried out secret murders (known as forced disappearances).
Normally it is the police who search for a missing person.
If someone goes missing at sea, they may instead call on the coast guard or a similar agency.
Most missing person cases that are reported to the police are simple cases, where the person is found quickly.
In 1999, 800,000 children went missing in the United States, but only 115 cases were kidnapped by a stranger who wanted to keep them for a long period of time.
A small number of missing person cases are not solved for many years.
These cases can be painful for friends and families, because they cannot be sure what happened to the person.
In most countries, the law says that if someone has been missing for many years, the government can declare that the person is dead.
This is known as "declaring death in absentia".
