來自瑞士的愛——藝術大師普杰援助四川災情
由中華人民共和國文化部、瑞士駐華大使館主辦，中國對外藝術展覽中心、今日美術館承辦的“普杰藝術展 08中國?北京” 已于2008年5月10日下午在今日美術館隆重開幕。藝術家首次向中國藝術愛好者全面展示他極具創造力的銅版畫及設計系列作品，藝術家在國際上的重大影響力由此轉入中國。
作為展覽主要贊助方之一的菲亞特集團，為本次展覽捐贈新型菲亞特500一輛，普杰先生將于5月16-18日在車身進行現場繪畫。原計劃繪制展出后運回瑞士拍賣，所得款項捐贈瑞士慈善機構。
然而2008年5月12日，中國四川省阿壩州汶川縣發生的里氏8.0級強烈地震改變了藝術家的初衷。普杰先生對災情十分關心，決定將繪制的汽車在中國地區舉辦慈善義拍，并將拍得款項全部捐獻地震災區。這一想法的實現，需要拍賣機構、媒體及社會各界人士的大力響應與支持，在此誠待有意關注此事的機構或個人與我們取得聯系，成此善舉。
繪制完成的汽車將在今日美術館1號館二層展廳展出，直至2008年5月31日，歡迎社會各界人士前往觀摩。
