Sandra Hegedüs
Founder of SAM Art Projects and collector
Her taste for art led her to build up a collection of contemporary art from 2005. The desire for a stronger commitment to aid artistic creation naturally leads her to patronage. In 2009, she created SAM Art Projects, designed to promote, through residencies and by awarding an award, the work of foreign artists in France, and French artists abroad.
A passionate woman, Sandra Hegedus belongs to this new generation of activist collectors who have established themselves in the French landscape in recent years, creating bold philanthropic projects, supporting the talents of tomorrow and working on ambitious projects delà̀ borders. In 2018, she received the 27th MontBlanc Prize for Art Patronage Culture and in 2020 was appointed an Officer of the Legion of Honour by French Minister of Culture Franck Riester.

Founder and Director

From her beginnings as a gallery owner (1990-2010), drawing will have a prominent place in her selection. In 2007, she created le Salon du dessin contemporain which became the famous Drawing Now. Christine Phal created the Contemporary Drawing Award and the Contemporary Drawing Endowment Fund.
A great patron of drawing, she has been producing three exhibitions a year by artists/curators who question all facets of today's drawing at the Drawing Lab Paris (located on level -1 of the Drawing Hotel run by her daughter Carine Tissot) since 2017.
