Founded in 2008 by Florence Guillier Bernard, maison parisienne<\/em> is a gallery dedicated to artists whose practices centre on materials and operate at the intersection of art, fine craftsmanship and contemporary French design. Through a rigorous and thoughtful approach, the gallery foregrounds gesture, savoir-faire and formal exploration, working closely with artists whose works are defined by a strong and singular identity.<\/p>\n

Today, maison parisienne<\/em> represents and supports approximately twenty artists and artisans. Wood, textile, glass, metal, ceramic, paper, wicker and feather form the core of their practices, shaping works that span furniture, sculpture, decorative objects and monumental installations.<\/p>\n

The gallery\u2019s collections gather unique pieces, limited editions and bespoke commissions. This deliberate commitment to rarity allows artists significant creative freedom and reflects a vision of creation grounded in longevity and timelessness.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A gallery shaped by projects and exhibitions<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

maison parisienne<\/em> approaches each exhibition as a fully realised endeavour, conceived in close dialogue with the spaces in which it unfolds. Since its founding the gallery has organised more than seventy exhibitions in France and internationally, notably in Paris, London, Brussels, Geneva and Monaco.<\/p>\n

Several exhibitions have marked defining moments in the gallery\u2019s history, including Un monde de plis<\/em> presented in 2017 at the Chapelle expiatoire in collaboration with the Centre des monuments nationaux and Plieuse de temps<\/em>, the monographic exhibition dedicated to Simone Pheulpin at the MAD \u2013 Mus\u00e9e des Arts d\u00e9coratifs de Paris.<\/p>\n

Since 2020 maison parisienne has presented La Promenade du Collectionneur<\/em> at the H\u00f4tel Solvay in Brussels. Conceived as an immersive journey within this Art Nouveau masterpiece and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the presentation creates a singular dialogue between contemporary works and architectural heritage.<\/p>\n

In 2024 maison parisienne celebrated its fifteenth anniversary with the exhibition 15 years, 15 artists, 15 works<\/em> at the Hall des Mar\u00e9chaux of the MAD Paris accompanied by the publication of a book retracing the gallery\u2019s origins and evolution.<\/p>\n

That same year the gallery took over the H\u00f4tel de la Marine during Paris Design Week, before presenting the monumental installation Coraux de la Libert\u00e9<\/em> by Aude Franjou at the heart of the Colonne de Juillet, Place de la Bastille in 2025. Entirely crafted from linen fibers, this immersive work reflects maison parisienne<\/em>\u2019s commitment to contemporary craft practices and ambitious projects set within major heritage sites.<\/p>\n

Along with its exhibitions in historic settings, maison parisienne<\/em>\u00a0regularly takes part in leading international fairs, including PAD Paris, PAD London, Design Miami Paris and the R\u00e9v\u00e9lations biennial in Paris as well as R\u00e9v\u00e9lations China, contributing to the international visibility of the French savoir-faire it actively champions.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

From its earliest years, maison parisienne<\/em> has been deeply committed to supporting the recognition of its artists within public collections and cultural organisations. This commitment has led to the acquisition of numerous works by major public collections in France and internationally.<\/p>\n

In France, works by artists represented by the gallery are included in the collections of the MAD \u2013 Mus\u00e9e des Arts d\u00e9coratifs de Paris, the Mobilier national, the Centre national des arts plastiques (CNAP), the Mus\u00e9e Jean Lur\u00e7at et de la tapisserie contemporaine in Angers, and the Mus\u00e9e des Beaux-Arts de Nancy.<\/p>\n

In 2025 maison parisienne<\/em> was associated with the French Fiber<\/em> project, presented in an institutional context at the French Embassy in Copenhagen, reflecting the gallery\u2019s commitment to contemporary French savoir-faire on the international stage.<\/p>\n

In January 2026 the gallery curated an exhibition dedicated to French savoir-faire at the Residence of the French Ambassador in Brussels, highlighting contemporary practices within an institutional framework.<\/p>\n

Internationally, works by Simone Pheulpin, Pierre Renart and G\u00e9rald Vatrin have joined the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Art Institute of Chicago and the Dutch National Glass Museum in Leerdam. The gallery also collaborates with major cultural institutions and foundations, including the Fondation Boghossian in Brussels and the H\u00f4tel Solvay, as previously mentioned.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
