Located in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, in the heart of the Carré Rive Gauche, 1831 Art Gallery is a meeting place for collectors, artists and architecture and design professionals. It is a singular gallery, founded in 2014 by Aude and Jean-Louis Herlédan, respectively internationally renowned painter and sculptor and passionate collector; the gallery is directed by Benedetta Battocchio.

For this new edition of Moderne Art Fair, the 1831 Art Gallery, in collaboration with Rosenberg & Co gallery from New York, is pleased to present an intimate journey through sculptures and works on paper and canvas.
This joint project offers a dialogue between modern and contemporary artists, exploring how sculptors conceive, sketch, and extend their gestures through the medium of drawing. At the same time, canvas and paper become spaces of formal experimentation — projection grounds that echo sculptural volumes.
Works by Alexander Archipenko, Henri Laurens, Frank Dobson, Agustín Cárdenas, and Aristide Maillol will be presented alongside those of contemporary artists represented by 1831 Art Gallery — Eleanor Lakelin, Aude Herlédan, Monika Debus, and Thomas Lévy — within a scenography that celebrates volume, form, and material: bronze, wood, marble, and ceramic in dialogue with the surfaces and textures of painting.
