Galerie Mitterrand Galerie d'Art Contemporain Depuis sa création, la Galerie Mitterrand constitue pour les artistes internationaux une plateforme de diffusion efficace.

Fondée en 1988 par Jean-Gabriel Mitterrand, la Galerie Mitterrand est installée dans un hôtel particulier du quartier du Marais à Paris. Initialement dédiée à la sculpture contemporaine, elle a progressivement élargi sa programmation pour se concentrer sur la représentation d’œuvres réalisées par des artistes historiques à partir des années 1960. Elle a ainsi favorisé la visibilité du travail d'Edi Hila, Allan McCollum, Niki de Saint Phalle, Tony Oursler, Anne et Patrick Poirier, pour ne citer qu’eux, et en a soutenu beaucoup d'autres. Par ailleurs, la galerie collabore activement avec les successions de Carlos Cruz-Diez, Dennis Oppenheim, Marta Pan, Francisco Sobrino et Keith Sonnier afin d'offrir de nouvelles perspectives à leur œuvre. La Galerie Mitterrand s’est toujours attachée à la promotion d’œuvres essentielles à notre compréhension de l'art contemporain. Elle a ainsi récemment intégré à sa programmation des artistes plus jeunes, reflétant la diversité et la riche complexité des processus créatifs du XXIe siècle. De ces nouvelles collaborations est né un dialogue intergénérationnel dynamique, soulignant les nombreux paradoxes d'un monde à la fois connecté et fracturé. L’année 2021 a ouvert un nouveau chapitre par les représentations de Raphaël Zarka, My-Lan Hoang-Thuy, Wallen Mapondera et Mamali Shafahi.

Galerie Mitterrand was founded in 1988 by Jean-Gabriel Mitterrand and is currently located in a townhouse in Paris’ Marais district. Originally dedicated to showcasing contemporary sculpture, the gallery progressively widened the scope of its program and focused on exhibiting historically significant artists who began making art from the 1960s onwards. Since its creation, Galerie Mitterrand served as a platform for international artists in France. The gallery fostered appreciation for the work of Edi Hila, Allan McCollum, Niki de Saint Phalle, Tony Oursler, Anne and Patrick Poirier, to name but a few, and supported many others. The gallery also collaborates actively with the estates of Carlos Cruz-Diez, Dennis Oppenheim, Marta Pan, Francisco Sobrino, and Keith Sonnier to shed new perspectives on celebrated bodies of work. Galerie Mitterrand always was interested in promoting artworks deemed essential to our understanding of contemporary art. Reflecting on the rich complexity of the 21st century creative processes, the artistic programme recently expanded to a younger, more diverse, group of artists, making virtue of a dynamic intergenerational dialogue to address the many differences of a connected yet fractious world. In 2021, a new chapter of collaborations opened with the representations of Raphaël Zarka, My-Lan Hoang-Thuy, Wallen Mapondera and Mamali Shafahi.

Only 10 days left to discover « How Do You Even Sleep at Night? », Wallen Mapondera’s solo exhibition.

In this work, the artist depicts a ghostly, almost animal-like figure evoking the police officers tasked with carrying out demolition orders. This “blind messenger” follows commands without questioning them, embodying the ambiguous position of those who enforce the system’s violence while remaining vulnerable to it themselves.

On view until October 10, 2026

In ´Ghost Worker’ (2026), Wallen Mapondera addresses the invisible agents of administrative violence in Zimbabwe.

A recurring motif in the artist’s work, the gloves represent those who carry out destructive decisions while remaining out of sight. Against an intense red background, they evoke the violence of forced evictions and the suffering of families deprived of their homes and livelihoods.

François-Xavier Lalanne’s « Le très grand ours » (1994–2015) stands as a rare and monumental example of the artist’s celebrated bestiary. Cast in bronze and rising to three meters in height, the sculpture depicts a bear in an upright, almost anthropomorphic stance, its presence both imposing and disarmingly gentle. Lalanne moves away from naturalistic detail, favoring instead a simplified and stylized vocabulary of forms that lends the work a timeless, almost archetypal quality.

Currently on view at Domaine du Muy.

Season 2026 is officially open at Domaine du Muy with two new exhibitions dedicated to Pablo Picasso.

« Salut Pablo », scenographied by India Mahdavi in the Silver House, takes its title from Niki de Saint Phalle’s 1973 « Hommage à Picasso ». Inspired by this symbolic gesture, the exhibition imagines a joyful dialogue between Pablo Picasso and Niki de Saint Phalle, and bringing Picasso’s work into conversation with Liam Gillick, Giuseppe Penone, Mario Schifano and Franz West.

Presented in the gallery beneath the Silver House, « Pablo Picasso: Paintings, Ceramics & Works on Paper » offers a dedicated presentation of the artist’s paintings, ceramics and works on paper.

The Sculpture Park also features new works by Niki de Saint Phalle, François-Xavier Lalanne and Claudia Comte.

On view until September 27th, 2026 ☀️

Presented in « Cosmic Landscapes », this painting by Jack Goldstein’s reflects his enduring fascination with natural phenomena and the sublime forces that shape our experience of the universe.

A key figure of the Pictures Generation, Goldstein appropriated photographic and cinematic imagery to create works that blur the boundaries between reality and representation. Here, an incandescent form emerges from the darkness, transforming a fleeting celestial event into a haunting meditation on perception, spectacle, and the mediated experience of nature.
