Founded in 1989, GALERIE PATRICK SEGUIN is located in Paris’s Bastille district in a 300 sqm (3200 sq ft) space, architectured by Jean Nouvel, a 2008 Pritzker Prize winner. Since its opening, the gallery has brought the talents of French designers such as JEAN PROUVÉ, JEAN ROYÈRE, CHARLOTTE PERRIAND, PIERRE JEANNERET and LE CORBUSIER into the international spotlight. 

With a particular specialization in the work of Jean Prouvé, Galerie Patrick Seguin works rigorously to promote both his furniture as well as his demountable architectures. As of today, the gallery has assembled the most important collection of these demountable houses, which for the most part are either unique examples or were produced in very few numbers.

The quality of the works selected by Patrick Seguin combined with his meticulous and informative presentations has resulted in unique exhibitions at the Centre Georges Pompidou and the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Venice Biennale, the Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli in Turin, the Luma Foundation in Arles, and the Musée des Beaux Arts in Nancy, France.

Patrick Seguin was named Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2018 and promoted to Officier de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the Minister of Culture in 2024. The distinction was awarded to him by Jean Nouvel.

The gallery has also published a series of monographic books that accompany the exhibitions (Jean Prouvé, Jean Royère, Le Corbusier – Pierre Jeanneret – Chandigarh, Jean Prouvé Architectures…).

In addition to featuring both Prouvé demountable houses and design exhibitions, the gallery has invited international contemporary art galleries during the FIAC. Past exhibitions have included galleries Jablonka Galerie, Hauser & Wirth, Gagosian, Galerie Eva Presenhuber, Sadie Coles HQ, Massimo De Carlo, Paula Cooper Gallery, kurimanzutto, Luhring Augustine, Karma, David Kordansky Gallery and Gavin Brown’s enterprise.
