Gallery Presentation

lilia ben salah gallery, established in Paris since August 2022, is distinguished by its commitment to cultural hybridization and the promotion of artists whose practices transcend geographical and cultural boundaries. By positioning itself at the intersection of different artistic scenes, the gallery values the intricacy of cultural and historical exchanges between diverse influences. Through its programming, lilia ben salah gallery highlights the great diversity of practices and points of view of artists, both emerging and established, while seeking to showcase these free, uncompromising expressions whose voice is so essential to the development of societies. A mission that the gallery also intends to carry out via participation in international fairs, and the creation of offsite projects, while focusing on a rigorous curative approach: working in close collaboration with art critics and curators and getting closer to institutional players. In addition, the gallery aspires to provide another reading of art history over the past few decades by reconsidering the scope of the work of certain historical artists, originating from Africa and the Middle and Near East, by presenting them outside of their geographical context. The opening of the gallery on the avenue Matignon is in this respect the ideal location for an international public of collectors and art institutions, for whom Paris remains a major landmark.
