Established in 2024, Fondation TEI is dedicated to fostering artistic and cultural ties between Switzerland and Japan while preserving and passing on the elements of universal culture through time-transcending works and initiatives.

The foundation is supported by François-Paul Journe, one of the world’s most esteemed independent watchmakers, whose workshop is based in Geneva.

For TEI’s inaugural exhibition on May 25, 2024 in Omotesando, Tokyo, the Peter Zumthor Collection, designed by the renowned Swiss architect Peter Zumthor in collaboration with Time & Style, was showcased alongside works by Swiss-based artists Mirko Baselgia and Philippe Cramer.
