The Tsai Foundation is dedicated to preserving and advancing the legacy of Wen-Ying Tsai, increasing public awareness of his work, and situating his place in art history. In addition to promoting his art through exhibitions and scholarly research, the Foundation preserves, restores, and develops modern solutions for the conservation of Tsai’s unique artworks. 

The Tsai Foundation houses Tsai’s archive and a core collection of his works. The Foundation maintains two facilities (in the U.S. and in Switzerland) for the maintenance and repair of Tsai’s works, and provides consultations for Tsai’s work in public and private collections.  

The Tsai Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization located in SoHo, New York at the site of Tsai’s original live/work loft space and is stewarded by Tsai’s wife and sons. Click here to read Lun-Yi London Tsai’s reflections on the work of maintaining his father’s legacy.
