A Family Story
Sharing emotions since 1987
Born into a family of artists, Arnaud Bard grew up surrounded by creativity and the vibrant energy of the art world. This early immersion shaped his eye and fuelled his desire to champion artists, advocate for their work, and preserve the uniqueness of their creative vision.
The adventure began in Boulogne, in western Paris, over thirty years ago. There, Arnaud Bard transformed his sculptor’s studio into an art gallery, founding one of the very first galleries in the Hauts-de-Seine. Deeply passionate about art, he defines himself above all as a “conduit of emotion”, a conviction that has always guided the spirit of the gallery. Arnaud Bard identifies, selects and champions emerging artists of promising talent, as well as established names with a recognised presence in the contemporary European art market. His choices stem first from personal sensibility, then are refined through close dialogue with the artist. The works on show share a common thread: mastery, grounding, and precision in their execution, offering collectors an original, demanding and singular selection. As he likes to say, acquiring a work of art is a form of adoption: an encounter that enriches the eye and nourishes the soul of those who choose it. Warm, humane and radiant, Arnaud Bard has made his gallery a place of exchange, discovery and sharing, welcoming to first-time visitors and seasoned collectors alike.
