Public utility purpose: the foundation also aims to acquire works of art to exhibit them to the public through its own efforts or those of an existing museum; to directly or indirectly promote contemporary art in all its forms; and to alleviate the lives of elderly people within the framework of what is considered to be of public utility by the tax authorities (cf. statutes for full purpose).
