The mission of The Sam Francis Foundation is to research, document, protect and perpetuate the creative legacy of the artist Sam Francis (1923-1994).

The goal of the foundation is to promote awareness of and knowledge about the art of Sam Francis to the public through education and information.

Please contact Foundation director, Debra Burchett-Lere regarding the ongoing research and documentation for the forthcoming publication of the Catalogue Raisonné. The first publication will focus on unique canvas paintings and the second publication will focus on unique works on paper from the 1940s to the 1990s.
