The Vasarely Foundation in Aix-en-Provence is marking its 50th anniversary and the 120th birthday of artist Victor Vasarely with an exhibition detailing the origins of its unique experimental museum building. The foundation is currently undergoing efforts to revitalize the institution under the leadership of Pierre, the artist’s grandson. A significant part of this revival involves reclaiming artworks that were previously diverted from the foundation. This follows a protracted legal battle to regain control of these pieces. The exhibition serves as both a celebration of Vasarely’s legacy and a demonstration of the foundation’s renewed commitment to preserving and showcasing his work. The foundation aims to re-establish itself as a key cultural landmark in the region.
