On July 31, the internationally acclaimed attorney and well-known UAE resident, Romain Gerardin-Fresse, launched his inaugural art gallery on the esteemed Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard in Downtown Dubai. The inauguration, which attracted approximately 60 meticulously chosen attendees, showcased the works of three artists he represents: Amélie Béral, John Thery, and MBart. Amélie Béral was on hand to engage with guests about her artistic methods and creations.
Among the notable attendees was Yaqoob Al Ali, Private Advisor to Sheikh Juma Bin Maktoum Al Maktoum and Executive Director of His Office. Art enthusiasts and collectors from Dubai, Geneva, London, and Monaco had the chance to view the pieces in the exhibition, titled 'Enjoy The Color'. This triumphant debut signified a major achievement for Gerardin-Fresse, who had invested substantial energy into this venture. With an impressive attendance during the summer, including prominent collectors, government representatives, and celebrities, Gerardin-Fresse conveyed his delight: "I am elated that we were able to host such a distinguished group who valued the art. It was essential for me to bring this project, which I have cherished for many years, to life and to present European contemporary artists to a Middle Eastern audience that had not yet been introduced to them."
As a devoted art collector and aficionado, Gerardin-Fresse often imparts his perspectives on artistic topics to the media. Moreover, he has chosen to incorporate a philanthropic element into the monthly temporary exhibitions, by contributing a portion of the sales proceeds to various associations.
