Jean-Marc Bustamante will inaugurate the Fondation Bustamante in Arles in summer next year. Housed in a 12th-century church, the foundation will display Bustamante's works and archive. It aims to support visibility for artists of all ages, offering a bold exhibition program and educational masterclasses. Directed by Bustamante with a diverse board, the foundation seeks full autonomy through a family council for funding. It joins other cultural institutions in Arles, which Bustamante identifies as a culturally significant location in Europe.
"My goal is to position the foundation among the exceptional cultural offerings of the city, providing support and visibility to artists from all generations and to young exhibition curators, critics and historians from around the world."
"The Fondation Bustamante will be directed by its founder with the support of a board composed of leading figures from the art world that represent its diversity and richness, including young artists, museum directors, curators, and academics."
"Arles is today in France and Europe, with the exception of Venice, a place of enormous cultural importance, with no equivalent."
