Waddington Custot has announced it will open a new gallery at 36 rue de Seine in Paris, occupying the historic space formerly home to Lansberg Gallery in the 6th arrondissement. The gallery is set to open in October 2025, ahead of Art Basel Paris, and will be managed by Isaure de Roquefeuil and Antoine Clavé. The inaugural exhibition will focus on the Nabis painters, followed by a group show of modern and contemporary artists. The 200-square-meter space is located in the Saint-Germain-des-Prés district. (Note: The opening has since been rescheduled to early 2026.)
This expansion matters because it strengthens Waddington Custot’s presence in the European art market, placing the gallery in direct proximity to international collectors and major cultural institutions during a key art fair period. The move signals continued confidence in Paris as a growing hub for the global art trade, and the gallery’s focus on both historical modern movements and contemporary artists underscores its strategy of bridging past and present in a competitive market.
