GALLERY DESCRIPTION

SEPTIEME Gallery is a contemporary art gallery whose doors open in October 2019, founded by Julie Banâtre and Léa Perier Loko.

SEPTIEME Gallery is a new iteration of the gallery – thoughtfully and purposefully disobedient, with an undercurrent of activism. This vision comes to life through the decompartmentalization of ideas and practices, the widespread international presence of our artists, the fostering of unexpected collaborations and an openness to new encounters.

The artists represented by the gallery share a sharp critical sense and a willingness to go beyond the confines of gesture, medium and thought through a universal language. In this way, they show a deep desire to be defined by their creations rather than being restricted by an identity. Together, they illustrate the increasingly dense diversity of the world around them by asking open questions for us to ponder.

SEPTIEME Gallery organizes in-house exhibitions (lasting anywhere between 1 and 2 months), events (such as collectors dinners) and participates in international art fairs.
