CLAIRE VASARELY, UNE VIE DANS LA COULEUR

 

Claire Vasarely

Exhibition from June 14 to February 15, 2025

Long overshadowed by Victor Vasarely, Claire Vasarely (née Klára Spinner) is now emerging in all the richness of her personal work. The Vasarely Foundation is dedicating a unique retrospective to this French artist of Hungarian origin.

 

Organized in partnership with the Vasarely Museum in Pécs (Hungary), the retrospective draws on previously unseen archives and a selection of rare works that trace the career of an independent, free-spirited, and visionary artist.

Désastre des astres

 

Lucien Bitaux

Exhibition from June 14 to October 12, 2025

 

Winner of the Vasarely Prize at the CHRONIQUES 2022 Biennale, Lucien Bitaux takes over the Vasarely Foundation’s honeycomb-like spaces for his very first solo exhibition. Entitled Désastres des astres (Disasters of the Stars), this immersive and sensory exhibition explores the intersections between art, science, and memory through a series of mobile and luminous installations.

Inspired by the geological landscapes of Sainte-Victoire Mountain and the Bibémus quarries—motifs dear to Cézanne—Bitaux offers a universe where raw minerality, geometric rigor, and evocations of cosmic time intermingle.

 

Vasarely, Plasticien

 

A tour and cultural mediation program allow visitors to discover or rediscover the Master’s artistic universe, from his beginnings as a graphic designer to the creation of his monumental installations and his utopian project, the “polychrome city of happiness.”

This educational presentation, featuring nearly 250 original works and documents in a specially designed setting, incorporates the fundamental elements of the project by the French visual artist of Hungarian origin (Pécs 1906–Paris 1997).
