Director Mathias Ary Jan
Founded in 1997, the Ary Jan Gallery has just taken over a new exhibition space located 32 avenue Marceau in the 8th arrondissement of Paris two years ago.
An exhibition of Jacques Majorelle’s work was a fitting inauguration of this spacious location, where the gallery owner continues to focus on Orientalism and the Belle Epoque (his specialities) presenting works by the greatest academic artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Dear visitors,
Due to the gravity of the international situation resulting from the spread of COVID-19 and in order to protect the health of all parties concerned, we have decided to cancel the 29th edition of the Salon du dessin.
France officially declared a state of health emergency on 24 March for two months and there are still numerous uncertainties regarding the evolution of the pandemic over the coming months. These factors make it impossible to reprogram the Salon before the summer of 2020 and the Salon du dessin, which usually attracts numerous other events in Paris for a week, will therefore not take place this year.
Louis de Bayser, President of the Salon du dessin said “this is a difficult decision to take with regard to all those who worked hard for this edition, but our priority is to protect the health of all our exhibitors, visitors and partners”.
We send our thoughts to all those affected by this epidemic and hope that this unprecedented health situation will quickly change favorably.
