Announcing the project, Frith Street Gallery Director Jane Hamlyn said: "I am delighted to realise a long-held desire for the gallery to have a presence in Paris. Many of our artists have enjoyed great exposure in museums and galleries around the world, but over the past decade there have been fewer opportunities to see their work in France". Frith Street Gallery le Molière is located by Jardins du Palais Royal and a short walk from major cultural landmarks such as the Louvre, the Bourse de Commerce, Collection Pinault and the new Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain. The London gallery originally opened in 1989 in a Georgian townhouse in Soho, moving to a large purpose-built space on nearby Golden Square in 2007.
