Dear fans of the work of Victor Vasarely,
Since her disappearance on November 27, 1990, selfish appetites, in France and abroad, even under the roof of the Artist during his lifetime, have awakened to undermine the project of a lifetime. and empty the Vasarely Foundation of the treasures of their creation with which its founders had endowed it. A long-term legal undertaking was undertaken to re-establish what had been desired at the same time as the unique instrument of presentation and projection of the work.
The few articles and/or archive elements that you will discover below recount this epic and shed light on events which would appear to have come from the sick imagination of a series scriptwriter if they were not unfortunately too real and painful, in a whirlwind of intrigue where the art world collides with money, politics and sex.
