Perrotin – Matignon 2bis

Emmanuel Perrotin founded his first gallery in 1990 at the age of twenty-one. Since then, he has worked closely with his roster of artists, some for more than twenty-five years, to realise their ambitious projects. Perrotin has galleries in Paris, Hong Kong, New York, Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai and Dubai, totaling approximately 8,500 square meters) across its locations.

Located since 2005 in an eighteenth-century mansion, Perrotin has four gallery spaces in the Marais district of Paris. Two years after it opened, the original Paris gallery expanded into its space on Impasse Saint-Claude. In 2014, Perrotin opened a 700-square-meter showroom known as the Salle de Bal, in a former ballroom in the Hôtel d’Ecquevilly, a seventeenth-century hôtel particulier. In June 2020, Perrotin opens a space on Avenue Matignon in the west of Paris. Then, in April 2025, it opens into an entire building at 8 Avenue Matignon, a 400 square meters space spread over five floors.

Perrotin represents about fifty artists and six estates, and also collaborates with approximately fifteen other contemporary artists. Altogether, the gallery provides exposure to both established and emerging artists of more than twenty-one nationalities. The gallery participates in more than twenty art fairs each year, including Art Basel (Hong Kong, Basel, Paris+, Miami), Frieze (London, New York, Los Angeles, Seoul), Dallas Art Fair, Expo Chicago, West Bund (Shanghai), and TEFAF New York, among others.

The gallery has expanded its mission in recent years, most notably through the production of thoughtful editorial content, such as podcast and video, as well as developing a programmatic calendar, which includes panel discussions, education workshops for children, and concerts.
