The 2012 Lille Art Gallery Guide

February 2, 2012 | by | Leave a Comment

Lille-art.com launches its new map of the 26 art galleries in Lille, free to print, divided into three areas: Beaux-Arts and Euralille, Vieux-Lille, and Wazemmes.

 

Mistakes are not impossible, but it is certainly the most up-to-date and comprehensive list of all those you can find on the web – and elsewhere. Our criteria for inclusion on our list of galleries are as neutral as possible, but again they may seem very subjective to many.

 

Inclusion criteria:

•     We list the art galleries in the strict sense (places – real and permanent – to sell to the general public unique or limited-edition artistic creations). We do not include any artist’s gallery (or workshop-gallery).

•     If other activities (framing, rental, communication consulting…), traditional gallery activity must be undeniably prevalent and other activities completely accessories.

•     Other activities that are not, in our view, those of an art gallery: a seller of non-contemporary objects or furniture is an antique dealer, not a gallery. A store of contemporary objects or furniture that are not unique pieces or limited series is a deco shop, not an art gallery.

•     No inclusion or exclusion motivated by business, financial, artistic or personal relations or preferences with/of Lille-art.com

Galerie Schèmes: Sunny fall with Jean-Claude Dailly

October 26, 2011 | by | Leave a Comment


Jean-Claude Dailly, it’s about 33 years of painting, including 31 years of exhibition at the Galerie Schèmes, i.e. as many years as the famous gallery itself. First artist of the gallery, chronologically and in importance, it is with him that Schèmes has been built, developed and maintained.

His recipe: sunny landscapes of Provence, of the Mediterranean, realized with the knife using a technique and a style imitated but never equaled anywhere (that of a son and grand-son of a painter… recognizable among all), and an impressive production enabling you to walk away with ‘your Dailly’ without ruining yourself, so you feel like on holiday at home all year round.

No link to offer to a website, he does not need it, his paintings leaving on their own for 30 years ago without interruption…

The crisis?? ’doesn’t know…

Art galleries in Lille

September 2, 2011 | by | Leave a Comment

Looking for a trip through art galleries in Lille? We’ve physically checked all gallery locations on the 26th of July, and although this list may not be perfect, this is probably today the most up-to-date gallery list you’ll find on the web.

We’ve volontarily split off ‘art galleries’ from ‘artists galleries’ (or ‘workshop-galleries’).

Also, the art gallery list contains only art galleries strictly speaking (no strange mixture of communication agency, shop, photo laboratory and who knows…)

The galleries has been grouped by geographical location inside the city, represented by different colors. The different galleries and regions of this list follow each other, approximately, as a big art circuit.

Schemes Gallery artist Eric Bourdon

May 22, 2011 | by | Leave a Comment


Eric Bourdon creates new and attractive characters in just a few improvised strokes, in a pop style, symbolic and full of emotions, colours and joy.

A work that will interest as much the old as it will please the young, with these comic paintings and very sharp acrylic colors.

The Schemes Gallery in Lille, France, represents Eric Bourdon since more than ten years, and Bicha Gallery has begun to show his works in London and internationally.

 

The Schemes Gallery is located at 27 rue de l’Hôpital Militaire in Lille.

Open from Wednesday to Saturday 1pm-6:30pm.

Underground station: République.

Schemes Gallery

March 11, 2011 | by | Leave a Comment

Established more than thirty years ago by Jean-François Parmentier, the Schemes Gallery has been entirely renovated by Didier Dewulf to become today the biggest art gallery north of Paris.

In there you’ll find the greatest figurative painters in the region, the ‘onirics’ and ‘symbolists’ whose drawing is sometimes much more refined – but no pure ‘abstract’; a few major sculptors, and also some very nice authentic wooden Indian furniture, at amazing prices (directly imported by the gallery).

Welcoming families as well as collectors (whatever their budget or experience might be) or just ordinary tourists and curious, you’ll be warmly received by the Schemes Gallery and will get the best advice from its staff.

The Schemes Gallery is located at 27 rue de l’Hôpital Militaire in Lille.

Open from Wednesday to Saturday 1pm-6:30pm.

Underground station: République.
