François Meyer was a photographer, artist, collector and passionate environmentalist. As the son of an equally engaged art collector, he was introduced to the art world at an early age and quickly became interested in photography. Throughout his travels and encounters, he dedicated himself to the task of immortalising the greatest artists of his time. His tender, exacting eye captured Warhol, Hockney, Lichtenstein, César and many others. François Meyer used the same sensibility to assemble a unique collection that Sotheby's is honoured to present for auction. After a successful sale in Paris we are very pleased to offer a selection of Swiss artworks in Zurich.
