Born in 1994, the Hartung-Bergman Foundation is the result of the lives and wishes of two very important painters of the 20th century: Hans Hartung (1904-1989) and Anna-Eva Bergman (1909-1987). Very few institutions in France and abroad have managed to preserve in their unity spaces for pictorial creations, the creations themselves, and the memory of a daily life on the same spot. Thanks to Hans Hartung and Anna-Eva Bergman, such an opportunity is possible. It allows for a truly immersive experience in the creative process. This process is conducted, in Bergman’s case as in Hartung’s, by a quest for the absolute, based on the perfect mastery of simple and essential elements: rhythms, colours, materials, lights.
