Based in Lyon for over twenty years, Galerie Françoise Besson represents around fifteen emerging and established artists, mainly from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Painting, drawing, photography, sculpture and video come together around memory, the living world and its roots. Across three spaces in the Croix-Rousse district, the gallery presents around fifteen exhibitions a year, publishes artist books, works with museums, and takes part in art fairs in France and abroad.

Galerie Françoise Besson

The gallery Françoise Besson brings together three major figures of contemporary painting: Marine Joatton, Damien Cabanes and Fabienne Gaston-Dreyfus. Three painters, three distinct worlds. Yet their works are united by a shared attention to living forms, sensitivity, and all that escapes immediate perception, revealing the quiet power of contemporary painting.

Geraldine Kosiak & Yveline Loiseur

Galerie Françoise Besson

Between Yveline Loiseur and Géraldine Kosiak, attention becomes a way of inhabiting the world. One reveals the fragile correspondences of life; the other gathers forgotten gestures, objects and memories. Both choose slowness, nuance and what quietly endures.
