The Catherine Houard Gallery located in the heart of the historic Saint-Germain-des-Prés strives to be resolutely multidisciplinary.

The gallery presents renowned artists from different universes and artistic movements, whether contemporary or modern, with work either devoted to painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, photography or everything at once …!

The gallery is also interested in the personal work of personalities from the world of fashion, Sonia Rykiel and her drawings, from the Cinema, Dean Tavoularis or Ettore Scola, from the theatre and the medias, Jerome Revon, Jean Feldman … It seeks to build bridges between different genres.

The gallery program is completed with exhibitions of major artists, George Condo «Le Sourire de Condo», Enoc Perez «Portraits d’Architecture», Don Nice «Pop Paradise» and in October 2015 the wonderful ceramics of the Artigas Foundation «Grands Feux» where have been collected and presented for the rst time artworks of Braque, Chillida, Flannagan, Miro, Tapies …

Catherine Houard, after the tribute to Piero Crommelynck (1934 – 2001) in 2012 with the exhibition « De Picasso à Alechinsky… », pursues her desire to present copper engraving, appreciated and recognized for its nobility, its rarity and the richness of techniques it offers to the artist. This technique, already used since 1446 by Old Masters such as Dürer, Rubens, Rembrandt, Goya …, is still used by the greatest artists of the last fty years, including Picasso, Braque, Miró, Giacometti, Matisse, Le Corbusier, Alberola, Alechinsky, Jim Dine, Richard Hamilton, Jasper Johns, Alex Katz, Sam Szafran …

Catherine Houard also introduces pieces of furniture designers and architects, including industrial furnitures from the «Dutch Prouvé», designer Friso Kramer.

Much more than an art gallery, Catherine Houard wants a friendly, warm and welcoming space, where passions meet each other, a place open to all, where multiple universes as poetic as eclectic can be told, but still resolutely artistic.
