À propos de Stems Gallery
Stems Gallery is an emerging gallery based in Brussels and Paris. The gallery opened in 2015 by brother and sister Pascaline and Guillaume Smets.
The gallery exhibits the work of emerging artists, with a particular focus on introducing contemporary American artists to European audiences. Highlighting works in all mediums and formats, including painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, video, and installation, the gallery’s program is driven by intuition and curiosity rather than any rigidly defined criteria.
Each exhibition is the result of a close collaboration between the gallery and the artist or curator, allowing artists to communicate their individual creative visions and to witness the energy and dynamism of the Belgian art scene. Also, offering them an international recognition by the participation in various important fairs.
In October 2020 Stems moved to a new location in a historical building in the heart of Brussels, in the former cantine of the Solvay laboratories. Founded in 1863, Solvay was and still remains the leading biochemical company in Belgium, holding the famous “Solvay Conferences” every three years, bringing together Nobel Prize-winning physicists and chemists. Among these famous scientists, Albert Einstein and Marie Curie are known to have entered our present space. The office space has been designed by the Zürich based office Solanellas Van Noten Meister.
Most recently, Stems Gallery opened a new location at 11 rue Pastourelle in the heart of the Marais in Paris inaugurated with a solo show by French-American artist Pharaoh Kakudji “Tear A Part, Torn A Part”.
