- Share via
PARIS — More than 100 paintings, drawings and sculpture acquired by French actor Alain Delon over two decades went on display at the Galerie Didier Imbert to benefit cancer research.
The exhibition, titled “Twenty Years of Passion,” opened Thursday and will run through April 13. Proceeds from the sale of the show’s catalogue will be donated to the Assn. for Cancer Research.
“This collection came about through love and passion, and not in a commercial or speculative spirit,” Delon said.
The collection includes works by Braque, Toulouse-Lautrec, Delacroix and Millet and animal sculpture by Rembrandt Bugatti.
