Galerie Anne-Sarah Bénichou
Laurent Montaron , France
For his second solo exhibition at the gallery, Laurent Montaron will present a corpus of emblematic works, including a new series of photographs inspired by the history of philosophy, taken in iconic locations in Greece and Turkey. This series will be exhibited in parallel during the Rencontres d’Arles 2024. Laurent Montaron’s work draws inspiration from the history of technology, studying the ways in which innovations have continually led to new ways of observing and understanding the world. Through his research on the media and tools that shape our representations, his work lays bare the paradoxes that accompany our vision of modernity.

The gallery
Founded in 2016 in the Marais district of Paris, the Anne-Sarah Bénichou Gallery represents 14 artists of different generations, both French and foreign, emerging and established. The wide diversity of practices and backgrounds among these artists helps promote individuals with a unique perspective on the world, and establishes a dialogue between different eras and various forms of art (painting, photography, sculpture, performance, installation, and drawing).
Each exhibition seeks to question the sensibility of the world, particularly focusing on the place and form that contemporary art takes in our society. For six years, the gallery has found its place on the Parisian scene, among collectors and art professionals, pursuing a single goal: to advocate for culture, the arts, and artists.
The Anne-Sarah Bénichou Gallery also engages in publishing activities by regularly producing catalogs and publications about its artists. Many scholars, critics, and exhibition curators participate in these initiatives, offering a detailed insight into the artists' work.
The gallery participates in numerous art fairs in France and abroad: FIAC, Artissima, Independent, Paris Photo, Arco Madrid, Art Dubai, Art Genève, Paréidolie, Beirut Art Fair, and more.
