Galerie Mitterrand

Founded in 1988 by Jean-Gabriel Mitterrand and currently located in a privately-owned townhouse in Paris’ Marais district, Galerie Mitterrand is dedicated to showcasing contemporary sculpture and historically significant artists who started their career from the 1960s onwards.
By collaborating with artists or their estates, the gallery aims to highlight the singularity and pertinence of artists who have contributed to the recent history of contemporary art. Since its creation, Galerie Mitterrand has been exhibiting and supporting the work of international artists such as Niki de Saint Phalle, Allan McCollum, Keith Sonnier, Tony Oursler, Carlos Cruz-Diez among others.
More recently, Galerie Mitterrand has expanded its artistic programme to the world and to young artists by welcoming different new artistic mediums. This necessary opening up allowed us to reflect the incredible complexity and diversity of the 21st century artistic creation.
Galerie Mitterrand has been continuously promoting artworks which were essential to our understanding of contemporary art. It did so thanks to the arrival of artists such as Mark di Suvero, Dennis Oppenheim and Vaclav Pozarek. Nowadays, Galerie Mitterrand opens a new chapter to its artistic programme to a new generation of artists from different horizons, who explores the history of technics and forms through their personal analyses of contemporary societies. As a matter of fact, the artists Marie Hazard, Kamrooz Aram, Wallen Mapondera and Pedro Reyes are joining the artistic programme of the gallery in 2021 and 2022.
