Bailly Gallery, a Geneva-based gallery founded in 2007 by Charly and Hanna Bailly with family roots in the art business since 1977, is expanding its presence in Paris by opening a full public gallery space after operating a private showroom there for several years. The new location, which took five years to find, includes both a public exhibition area and two private showrooms designed like apartments, allowing collectors to view works in a domestic setting. The gallery is known for its expertise in Impressionist, Modern, and Postwar art and design.
This expansion matters because it reflects Paris's growing importance in the global art market, particularly since Brexit, which has shifted activity away from London. By investing in a permanent public space, Bailly Gallery aims to meet rising collector demand and offer a more accessible, destination-like experience, while maintaining a cohesive program with its Geneva location. The move signals confidence in Paris as a hub for international art sales and collecting.
