Perrotin is a contemporary art gallery founded in 1990 by Emmanuel Perrotin, at the age of twenty-one. He has since opened over eighteen spaces.
Perrotin has galleries in Paris, Hong Kong, New York, Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai and Las Vegas, totaling approximately 7,000 square meters (75,000 square feet) of exhibition space across its various locations.[1]
The gallery has expanded its mission in recent years, most notably through the production of editorial content, such as podcast and video, as well as developing a programmatic calendar, which includes panel discussions, education workshops for children, and concerts. The gallery also publishes catalogues, editions, and goodies, available in its bookstores.
Today, Perrotin represents 56 artists, and has collaborated with musicians such as Feist, Massive Attack,[2] N.E.R.D., Pharrell Williams,[3] and many others.
History
Since 2005, Perrotin's Paris gallery has been located in an eighteenth-century mansion, with three gallery spaces totaling approximately 1,600 square meters (17,000 sq. ft.) in the Marais district of Paris.[4] In 2014, Perrotin opened a 700-square-meter (7,500 sq. ft.) showroom on the same street as the main gallery space, known as “La Salle de Bal,” in a former ballroom in the Hôtel d’Ecquevilly, in Paris.[5] In spring 2020, Perrotin opens a space totaling 70 square meters (750 sq. ft.) on Avenue Matignon in the west of Paris. In their entirety, the Parisian spaces amount to 2,370 square meters (25,500 sq. ft.) [6]
In May 2012, Perrotin opened its Hong Kong gallery at 50 Connaught Road Central, designed by architect Andre Fu, totaling 650 square meters / approx. 7,000 square feet.[7] Perrotin announced in 2020 that the Hong Kong gallery will move across the harbor to K11 ATELIER Victoria Dockside on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront.[8]
From 2013 to 2016, Perrotin New York was housed in a historic building on the Upper East Side’s iconic Madison Avenue.[9] After three successful years in Perrotin New York's Upper East Side location, the gallery expanded in April 2017 to a 2,300-square-meter (25,000 sq. ft.) space, relocating to 130 Orchard Street in New York City.[10]
In 2016, Perrotin inaugurated a 240-square-meter (2,600 sq. ft.) space in Seoul.
Additionally, in June 2017, Perrotin opened a space in Tokyo, occupying 130 square meters (1,400 sq. ft.)[11] Après des travaux d’agrandissement en 2019, la galerie se déploie sur 230 m2.
In 2018, Perrotin launched a gallery in Shanghai, in the heart of the city's Bund quarter.[12]
