The gallery
Since 1987, the gallery has presented a diverse program that has evolved from contemporary art towards the historical, with a particular focus on the interwar period.
Initially deeply engaged in contemporary creation around sculpture and plastic photography, the gallery has expanded its interest to photography and design by building a very significant collection of works and furniture pieces, covering the period from the early days of photography to the 1920s and 30s, and for design from the late 19th century to the present day around architect-designed furniture.
In order not to disconnect from its time, the gallery has continued its collaboration with certain contemporary artists who corresponded to its current aspirations since its inception.
For many years, its expertise in the field of photography has been recognized by its participation in international fairs specializing in the medium (Paris Photo and The Photography Show). It has been a member of the AIPAD (Association of International Photography Art Dealers) for several years.
Its recognition in design for over 20 years has made the gallery one of the leaders of the modernist movement, thanks to the importance of its expertise, stock, and archives.
