[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

On October 10, 2018, a charity auction Hommage \u00e0 Foujita<\/em>, benefiting the Fondation Foujita will take place under the renovated ceilings of theH\u00f4tel Lutetia<\/a> with the complicity ofArtcurial<\/a>, partners of the event.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]In this Foujita Year<\/em>, celebrating fifty years since the death of L\u00e9onard Foujita, the Foundation has invited some forty artists, art galleries and collectors<\/strong> to pay tribute to him by creating or donating a work to be sold at the charity auction. The choice of these works highlights the bond between the artists and the Japanese painter: a bond that stems from their shared artistic discipline, their sources of inspiration, their nationality, and for some, their shared history with Foujita.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The starting price for each lot is \u20ac1,000.<\/strong><\/p>\n

0% sales charge <\/strong>: given the charitable nature of this sale, no charge will be levied in addition to the auction price.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]The funds raised by this sale will be entirely devoted to financing artistic and cultural projects to help young people with educational, social or family difficulties to succeed at school and integrate into society.<\/strong> <\/a>social or family difficulties, supported by Apprentis d’Auteuil<\/a>.<\/p>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]”Of all my mother’s friends, Foujita is my favorite. He plays with me for hours,” wrote G\u00e9rard Oury, who was close to Foujita, in his M\u00e9moires d’El\u00e9phant<\/em> in 1988. Dani\u00e8le Thompson<\/strong>, screenwriter and director, daughter of G\u00e9rard Oury, is the patron of this unique event<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This exceptional sale will take place in the Salon Cristal of the H\u00f4tel Lutetia<\/strong>, an emblematic meeting place for personalities from the worlds of literature, art and cinema<\/strong>. The Hotel Lutetia supports this event, which is a continuation of the creative energy that has been present within its walls since its creation in 1910.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1622989251875{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_separator color=”custom” css=”.vc_custom_1622989183586{margin-top: 15px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;}” accent_color=”#dc002e”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
