International Office of Museums (1929–1941)

In April 1929 Foundoukidis was appointed Secretary of the IIIC's International Office of Museums (IOM).Шаблон:Sfn He served under Jules Destrée.Шаблон:Sfn Foundoukidis was open-minded and multi-lingual, and introduced a more internationalist and professional attitude to the IMO.Шаблон:Sfn In 1931 at a conference in Athens he was the first to use the French term patrimoine to refer to artistic heritage, and other international organizations soon began to use the patrimoine in this sense.Шаблон:Sfn He was made Secretary General of the IOM in 1931, holding office until after the start of World War II (1939–45).Шаблон:Sfn With Foundoukidis as its effective leader the IMO began to organize international conferences which drew very large numbers of attendees.Шаблон:Sfn The Germans were generally opposed to the IIIC and would not cooperate with the IMO or other League of Nations units, but to some extent Foundoukidis was able to counteract this divide through his diplomacy and human qualities, creating strong personal but unofficial links.Шаблон:Sfn

Under Foundoukidis the OIM was involved in the debate over acquisition of archaeological materials, and proposed that the OIM could facilitate resolution of disputes between a collecting institution and the country of origin.Шаблон:Sfn The 1933 OIM Draft came into operation whenever an object was alienated or exported contrary to national legislation, whether the object was from a collection or from an archaeological excavation. When stelae removed from Tell el-Amarna in Egypt were illegally exported and offered for sale in Europe, Foundoukidis advised that the OIM draft applied to both movables and immovables, such as "fragments of monuments". However, later versions of the OIM Draft did exclude objects from archaeological sites.Шаблон:Sfn The OIM also facilitated international exchange of cultural objects by promoting international exhibits and circulation of casts. Under a Leagues of Nations resolution the OIM became the clearing house for all information about international exhibitions.Шаблон:Sfn

During the Spanish Civil War, on 16 November 1936 eight incendiary bombs fell on the Museo del Prado in Madrid, causing considerable damage to the structure. The architect José Lino Vaamonde drew up a detailed plan of the impact of the bombs, with photographs, the next day. The plan and photographs were published in Mouseion, the press organ of the International Office of Museums, directed by Foundoukidis, in October 1937.Шаблон:Sfn

Later career (1941–68)

In September 1941 the IOM suspended operations as a result of World War II. Foundoukidis left the IIIC in 1946. He remained the honorary director of the Hellenic society at the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris.Шаблон:Sfn He also became secretary of the International Commission of Folklore and Folk Arts (CIAP), a unit of UNESCO's Commission for Philosophy and Historical Sciences (CIPHS).Шаблон:Sfn In 1951 he was replaced in this position by Jorje Dias of Portugal.Шаблон:Sfn Foundoukidis died on 11 September 1968.
