Galerie Mitterrand

Founded in 1988 by Jean-Gabriel Mitterrand, Galerie Mitterrand is housed in a private mansion in the Marais district of Paris. Initially dedicated to contemporary sculpture, it gradually broadened its programme to focus on works by historical artists from the 1960s onwards.

Since its creation, the Galerie Mitterrand has provided an effective platform for international artists. It has promoted the work of Edi Hila, Allan McCollum, Niki de Saint Phalle, Tony Oursler, Anne and Patrick Poirier and many others. The gallery is also actively collaborating with the estates of Carlos Cruz-Diez, León Ferrari, Dennis Oppenheim, Marta Pan, Francisco Sobrino and Keith Sonnier to offer new perspectives on their work.

The Galerie Mitterrand has always been committed to promoting works that are essential to our understanding of contemporary art. It has therefore recently added younger artists to its programme, reflecting the diversity and rich complexity of the creative processes of the 21st century. These new collaborations have given rise to a dynamic intergenerational dialogue, highlighting the many paradoxes of a world that is both connected and fractured.
The year 2021 opened a new chapter with performances by Raphaël Zarka, My-Lan Hoang-Thuy, Wallen Mapondera and Mamali Shafahi.
