Mariane Ibrahim Gallery is opening a new location in Paris. A renowned art dealer wants to further her focus on the art from the African Diaspora.

Just two years after moving her fast-growing gallery from Seattle to Chicago, Mariane Ibrahim will open a new location in Paris with plans to further her focus on art from the African diaspora. Paris location will welcome visitors in September to an inaugural show in a newly renovated three-story space on Avenue Matignon in a 19th-century Hausmann building in Paris’s 8th arrondissement.

For an art dealer who grew up in Somalia and France before leaving Paris for the United States in 2010, this will be a homecoming of sorts.
