Patrick Derom Gallery (stand 451) at TEFAF Maastricht 2016

Director: Patrick Derom

Covering a vast period from circa 1880 to the present, Patrick Derom Gallery presents work representing modern movements from Symbolism to Pop Art, with occasional excursions into contemporary art. A collector at heart, Patrick Derom selects his acquisitions on the basis of two criteria: quality and his personal enthusiasm for the artist or work. 
For many years, the gallery has participated in numerous international art fairs (Art Basel - Biennale des Antiquaires, Paris - Salon des Antiquaires, Paris - The International Fine Art Fair, New York - Foire des Antiquaires, Brussels, Salon du Dessin - Paris a.o.). The past years we have decided to focus on two fairs per year: TEFAF Maastricht and The Salon: Art+Design, New York. 
At the gallery in Brussels exhibitions are organized once or twice per year. Recently, we have chosen to work on a more personal basis with our clients, including museums as well as private collectors. Between exhibitions, the gallery is open by appointment ... or by chance.
