The draw will take place on 14 April 2026 at 6.00 p.m., at Christie’s in Paris under the supervision of a bailiff.

An exceptional artwork to be won

The artwork, a 1941 gouache on paper by Pablo Picasso entitled “Tête de femme”, comes from the collection of Opera Gallery, founded by Gilles Dyan, partner of the initiative.

The artwork will be handed over to the winner following the draw, after validation by the bailiff.

Art in the service of solidarity

Since its creation, the “1 Picasso for 100 euros” raffle has demonstrated that an artwork can do much more than change a single life , it can transform the daily lives of thousands. This bold and innovative initiative, imagined by Péri Cochin, has already raised over €10 million worldwide, supporting major humanitarian and cultural causes. “When Péri Cochin first approached us, I immediately embraced her idea of a charity raffle, both original and compelling, placing art at the service of others. The public’s enthusiasm deeply moved me: it’s a way to further Picasso’s own lifelong commitment to the most vulnerable,” Claude Picasso said.

A new edition to support Alzheimer’s research

This third edition of the “1 Picasso for 100 euros” raffle is organised by Fondation Recherche Alzheimer, a public-interest foundation, in order to raise funds to finance innovative scientific programs aimed at better understanding the mechanisms of the disease, developing new treatments, and improving quality of life for patients and their families.

Following the raffle, the Foundation will launch a major call for projects to support research programs encouraging synergies between leading research centres in France, Europe, the United States and Canada.

35 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer’s disease, including 7 million in the United States. It is the leading cause of dependency among seniors. In France, over 600 new cases are diagnosed every day, and more than 1 million people currently live with the disease.

By 2050, the number of cases could double, according to projections from the World Health Organization (WHO).

Founded in 2004 and recognised as a public-interest foundation since 2016, Fondation Recherche Alzheimer is the leading funder of Alzheimer’s research in France. It supports more than 40 research teams across France and Europe.

Each year, the Foundation funds fundamental and clinical research programs, finances doctoral and postdoctoral fellowships, and promotes the sharing of knowledge among French and European researchers.

Its work contributes to the identification of early biomarkers, the study of risk factors (nutrition, sleep, physical activity, environment), and the development of new treatments targeting the prevention of neuronal degeneration.

“Thanks to the public’s generosity and Picasso’s universal renown, we hope to raise substantial funds to advance research and bring hope to families affected by Alzheimer’s disease,” emphasises – Dr Olivier de Ladoucette, President of Fondation Recherche Alzheimer.
