Galerie Lelong

Galerie Lelong & Co. was founded in 1981 in Paris by Jean Frémon and Daniel Lelong. The gallery was created to promote contemporary artists and has launched the careers of many prominent figures, including Ana Mendieta, Kiki Smith, and Andy Goldsworthy. In 1985, Galerie Lelong expanded to New York City, establishing a significant presence in the international art market. The gallery’s commitment to diverse and socially engaged art has inspired other galleries to adopt similar values, fostering a culture of inclusivity and activism within the art world.
