Our galeries
Galerie Polaris
Starting Sunday 2023
On the occasion of Yto Barrada's exhibitions for the 2023 edition of the Festival d'Automne in Paris, Galerie Polaris is delighted to welcome the artist back to celebrate twenty years of collaboration. In spring 2003, "Gran Royal Turismo" was one of his first solo exhibitions in Europe, following his meeting with Bernard Utudjian.
Twenty years on, Yto Barrada, with the complicity of art critic and curator Clément Dirié, is presenting an exhibition that brings together his own work and that of six other artists (...) Like a charade, the exhibition presents a visual, mental and textured landscape in which the works will surprise and, let's be sure, bounce off each other, twenty years on and twenty years before.
After opening in 1989 on rue Saint-Claude, the Polaris gallery moved to its current location at 15 rue des Arquebusiers in Paris’ 3rd arrondissement in 2009.
The gallery has always been dedicated to the presentation of young artists who have made their first exhibition there. It follows the work of about twenty artists, including Yto Barrada, Sara Ouhaddou, Marcos Carrasquer, Speedy Graphito… From video to drawing, painting to photography, and also sculpture, the gallery presents not the latest media but the various trends that help the artist express himself today. It wishes to emphasize the work that can and should exist in the long term between an artist and the gallery, the institution and the collector.
