ART THEMIS welcomes you to this superb new art complex, built in 1893 by the BARDOU-JOB family, with the help of Van Peterssen, associate of Gustave Eiffel, the very same gentleman who built the Eiffel tour and several other chateaux in our region, including château Aubiry outside Céret and chateau Valmy near Argelès.
Keep an eye out in the future for more public auctions, themed exhibitions, concerts, conferences, art workshops, a classic car museum and a community for art both ancient and modern.......
Behind this fabulous project is Sir Antony AUDHOUI, president of the association ART THEMIS, auctioneer, Officer of the ’Association Franco-Britannique, Chevalier des Arts et Lettres, former president of the Association des Métiers d’Art and author of several novels. Sir Anthony says
" It was almost a year ago when I discovered this place and…fell in love with it ! It corresponds with all my aspirations, all my dreams. This place inspires friendship, a love of art and a love of life itself......
........I thank everyone for their moral support which helps me to bring about the realisation of this extensive and marvellous project. A project which will not only be a cultural centre in the Vallespir but will also provide jobs in the area."
