VIP Opening Reception of From Paris to New York
Monday, May 12, 2025 Galerie Gabriel at Sutton Tower
This landmark exhibition honors the transatlantic legacy of Galerie Néotù—the visionary design gallery founded by Gérard Dalmon and Pierre Staudenmeyer—and brings together groundbreaking works from both its Paris and SoHo eras. It runs through October of this year.
Galerie Gabriel celebrated the opening of this extraordinary revival of Néotù’s avant-garde spirit with a well-attended champagne reception at the gallery's 72nd floor Sutton Place penthouse, which offered spectacular views of the East River, Brooklyn, and midtown Manhattan. The exhibition features works by Martin Szekely, Garouste & Bonetti, Dan Friedman, Pucci de Rossi and more, curated by Michael Bargo and presented alongside pieces from CMS Collection.
Pioneers in the revival of French design during the 1980s and 1990s, Gérard Dalmon and Pierre Staudenmeyer operated not merely as gallerists, but as editors, scouts, and passionate advocates for a new creative language; one that dissolved boundaries between art, design, and daily life. Their galleries, first in Paris (founded in 1984), and later in New York (opened in 1990), hosted over a hundred exhibitions and championed around forty French and international designers.
The event was hosted by Galerie Gabriel and Mouvements Modernes.
