The Putman Gallery is moving to the third arrondissement of Paris, thus continuing a history relative to the places it inhabits. 
Founded in 1974 by Jacques Putman, soon joined by his wife Catherine, this family business has always distinguished itself through the choice of singular and intimist addresses. 

After having successively occupied their family apartments on Rue des Grands-Augustins and Rue de Talleyrand, where collectors and dealers are located, the 
gallery set up on Rue Quincampoix in 2005, in an upper-floor space. Attentive to both transmission and emergence, Éléonore Chatin, her daughter-in-law who took over from Catherine Putman in 2009, has defended the gallery’s historic artists ever since, while also accompanying new generations, with sensitive and rigorous 
continuity. 

The gallery has expanded and now welcomes visitors at 230 Rue Saint-Martin, alongside other Parisian galleries in the Marais, in a space entirely redesigned by the 
architect Léonie Alma Mason whilst remaining true to its identity. For the first time, it opens onto the street level at the ground floor, extending onto a more intimate upper floor. This configuration is designed to accommodate various rhythms of exhibition, to multiply perspectives and foster dialogue between the artworks, notably unique works on paper, but also multiples, in the tradition of publishing contemporary prints so dear to the Putmans. In the age of digitalisation, the Putman Gallery reaffirms the importance of a space for contemplation, encounters and discovery.
