Exactly 50 years ago, on June 10th, 1975, Agathe Gaillard opened the first gallery dedicated solely to photography in Paris, with the support of her husband Jean-Philippe Charbonnier and her photographer friends. Thanks to her passion, her impeccable taste, and her unwavering support for photographers, she worked tirelessly for the recognition of photography as an art. She made the 3 rue du Pont Louis-Philippe a legendary place for photography enthusiasts. In tribute to her life and work, we are having a special exhibition dedicated to Agathe within the walls of the gallery. We have selected beautiful prints from many photographers she supported throughout her career such as Manuel Álvarez Bravo, Claude Batho, Édouard Boubat, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Jean-Philippe Charbonnier, Luc Choquer, Robert Doisneau, Sandra Eleta, Jean-Pierre Évrard, Louis Faurer, Ralph Gibson, André Kertész, Erica Lennard, Marie-Paule Nègre, and Colette Urbajtel.
