Upcoming

Curatorial Gallery is proud to announce its participation at Paris Photo 2025, the leading international art fair dedicated to photography.
 

Our booth (D40) will showcase work by two artists who explore gender identity and expression, one hundred years apart from one another: E.O.Hoppé (1878 - 1972) and Jess T. Dugan (b. 1986). 

 

Both allies of the queer community in their own right, these artists give center stage to the power and importance of individuality, through sitters that inspired them. 

Whilst E.O. Hoppé was more concerned with immortalising some of the most fascinating figures of the 20th century, from the worlds of politics, the arts and literature, Jess T. Dugan focuses on their immediate community, resulting  in a series of candid and vulnerable moments of intimacy.

 

We look forward to welcoming collectors, curators and art lovers alike under the iconic glass roof of the Grand Palais.
