Perrotin Gallery has announced the opening of Perrotin London in early 2025. Situated in the heart of Mayfair, the gallery features 350 m2 of completely refurbished space in Claridge’s, a true British landmark. Perrotin is thrilled to be setting up its first London space in this vibrant and historic neighborhood. Located on Brook’s Mews, the gallery will be next to Claridge’s ArtSpace Café.
Perrotin London will offer a program created together with its artists to coincide with the city’s major cultural events, such as Frieze London, where the gallery has participated since 2004. For the 2024 edition, the gallery will present works by British sculptor Lynn Chadwick, whose Estate recently joined the gallery
It’s important to have a gallery in the British capital. We have a long-standing relationship with the UK art scene and collectors. I’ve been waiting for the opportunity to set up the gallery in the right conditions. I’m delighted to offer our artists a new exhibition platform and new projects in such a prestigious environment. This space was inaugurated in 2021 with a Damien Hirst exhibition organized by Claridge’s. As it happens, I organized Damien Hirst’s first two commercial exhibitions in 1990 (with a group show) and in 1991 (with a solo show) in my first Parisian space. At the exhibition opening in 1991, Frieze magazine launched its first issue, and Damien’s work was featured on the cover. It was an exceptional moment in my career. I look forward to coming full circle!
