    What is the Cherqui Foundation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    It is a contemporary art foundation<\/strong> that exhibits a very important, private collection of optical and kinetic art<\/strong> (works with light, movement, visual illusions). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It was created by Jean Cherqui, a pharmacologist who initiated the first generic drugs in the 1980s. It is a private collection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
