Adrien Belgrand, Seed Beads – acrylic on canvas – 2016 – 150 x 250 cm – Private collection
During confinement you can find the works of the gallery on his website
Sabine Bayasli is a gallery owner. In 2020, after years in her contemporary art gallery in the 9th arrondissement, this ardent “defender” of creation for more than twenty years, installed “her” artists in a white and silent space near the Pompidou center.
A few weeks before the re-confinement she proposed a display there which testifies to a singular vitality. Her choice: Adrien Belgrand, painter whom she has followed faithfully since her beginnings.
From her gallery, she combines great notoriety and seriousness around new French and international collaborations, focusing on emerging and recognized artists. A risky bet for Sabine who, as a true first-market gallery owner, produces and promotes the talents taken under her wing 100%.
Johann Rivat, THE GIANTS: WILL YOU BITE THE HAND THAT FEED?
Oil on canvas – 2019 – 100 x 70 cm
Available at the gallery
However, despite “or because” of the health crisis, the market seemed to be favorable to it. “Containment has aroused among collectors, neophytes and connoisseurs, the need to return to art, essential in their lives.” The artists she had the flair to defend even brought into her galleries young generations of amateurs eager to invest in the avant-garde of creation.
One thing is certain, after this forced break, the gallery will reopen its doors on rue du Temple. In the meantime, before being able to meet the artist Adrien Belgrand, an exclusive selection of his work “Le grand tour” is to be discovered on the site

CURRENT EXHIBITIONS A MUST SEE
Susumu Shingu, praise of slowness
At the Jeanne Bucher Jaeger gallery, a century-old space at the bottom of a courtyard, around thirty drawings and kinetic sculptures, moving works by the Japanese artist Susumu Shingu, are displayed. It was a trend in vogue in the 1950s, led by artists such as the Athenian Takis or the Brazilian Soto.
Ethan Murrow and his hymn to plants
The Girls of Calvaire gallery, sheltered at the back of a courtyard, is hosting the solo show “Magic Soil” by the American Ethan Murrow until November 25. A unique set of around fifteen paintings and drawings that pay homage to nature.
Marilyn forever
Sixty years after her death, Marilyn still embodies the eternal feminine. In the heart of the Marais, Joseph gallery, the Monroe Experience offers a digital and poetic exhibition until November 21, to better understand the myth and the woman, a start-up before her time, entrepreneur and modern for the time (sexual freedom , psychoanalysis etc.).
NOW ON THE MOOD MARSH
Victor Hugo, the writer with a thousand talents
Born in 1802, Victor Hugo became a social writer, a playwright, a poet, a novelist and a romantic designer. Nicknamed the man-ocean then the man-century, he is a political figure and a committed intellectual. He found success with Notre-Dame-de-Paris in 1831 and with Les Misérables in 1862.
The best tattoo parlors in Marais
Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors. Although it has become democratized, now affecting all profiles and concerning one in five French people, including 16% women compared to 10% men, it still remains taboo due to its definitive and transgressive nature.
Juliette Drouet actress, muse and mistress of Victor Hugo
At 14 rue Sainte-Anastase, from 1836 to 45 and at 12 from 1845 to 48, a few hundred meters from Place des Vosges, lived the muse and lover of Victor Hugo, Juliette Drouet née Julienne Gauvain.
