Emmanuel Perrotin founded his first gallery in 1989 at the age of 21. He has opened since then over 14 different spaces, with the aim of continuing to offer increasingly vibrant and creative environments to experience artists work. He has worked closely with his roster of artists, some since more than 20 years, to help fulfil their ambitious dreams and projects. Perrotin has added to his three gallery spaces in the Marais district of Paris (inaugurated in 2005 in a 18th century mansion house, and in 2007 extended to a White Cube next door), a new Paris showroom of 700 m2, known as la Salle de Bal, which is up the street and in a former Ballroom at the Hôtel d’Ecquevilly called “du Grand Veneur”, a 17th century Hôtel Particulier, opened in 2014. In total, the Parisian spaces are now approx. 2000 sq. meters. In May 2012 Perrotin opened the Hong Kong gallery on the 17th floor of 50 Connaught Road Central (650m2), which overlooks Victoria Harbour Bay, and in September 2013, the gallery in New York was added to his roster, at 909 Madison Avenue in the former1932 Bank of New York building, a historic landmark on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. In 2016, Galerie Perrotin inaugurated a 180m2 new space in Seoul that included a bookshop displaying unique editions & books published by the gallery. Located on the ground floor of the same building as Christie’s office at 5 Palpan-gil, Jongno-gu district, the heart of the galleries & museums area, it is nearby the National Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art and Daelim Museum, in front of the Blue House/President’s residence and the Gyeongbok Palace. After three successful years on the Upper East Side, the gallery will relocate in Spring 2017 to the Lower East Side, the city’s most dynamic arts neighborhood, close to the New Museum, expanding to a space eight times larger at 130 Orchard Street. Galerie Perrotin participates in all the significant worldwide art fairs each year: Art Basel (Hong Kong, Miami, Basel), Frieze (London, New York), FIAC (Paris), Dallas Art Fair, Art Cologne, Art Stage Jakarta, Expo Chicago, Art021 – Shanghai and West Bund Art & Design – Shanghai amongst others.
