Gallery interior with sculptures in bronze, stone and steel

A gallery for sculpture, since 1966

Galerie Art opened in Paris in 1966 and now works from four cities. We represent sculptors at every stage of their careers and stay with them from the first studio visit to the museum loan.

History

Isabel Nieto opened the first space in a former frame-maker’s workshop, showing carved and cast work at a time when most galleries in the city hung paintings. The gallery has kept that focus ever since: objects made by hand, shown with room around them.

Programme

Today the programme covers stone, bronze, ceramic, wood and installation. From spaces in Paris, Madrid, Lisbon and Toronto, Galerie Art organises exhibitions, takes part in fairs, publishes books and runs talks and studio visits for anyone curious about how sculpture is made.

Making Revisitations

Six weeks in Thandi Mokoena’s studio before the opening: roughing out the timber, burning and hollowing the columns, and the day they left for the gallery. Filmed by our in-house team. 4 minutes.
