Well even though he didn’t end up winning his 8 Tour de France title, many people think Lance Armstrong is doing something much more important.
Lance Armstrong is hosting the “Stages” art exhibit that opened at Paris’ Emmanuel Perrotin gallery last week. Armstrong and Nike CEO handpicked many underground and unknown artists to pump the gallery full of life with eclectic pieces (asked to use some yellow and incorporate Livestrong or Armstrong).
The exhibit is to benefit the Livestrong charity and will be heading to the United States in the near future.
