Leica Gallery Paris

The gallery showcases emerging talents as well as renowned artists while giving a privileged place to contemporary photography. As a brand embodied by personalities and photographers who have contributed to its history, the gallery stands as a witness to both its time and its past. It operates at the rhythm of 5 to 6 exhibitions per year.

The Leica Gallery is part of the Leica Store Paris Village Royal, an iconic space dedicated to the renowned camera brand. Within this Parisian boutique, visitors can explore the full range of Leica cameras, discover observation products, and take part in photography workshops offered as part of the Leica Akademie program. A true hub of artistic expression, the gallery brings the Leica world to life by showcasing exhibitions and works that celebrate photography in all its forms.

With over 30 years’ experience at Leica Camera France, Gaëlle Gouinguené has been responsible for the programming and production of exhibitions at the Leica Gallery since 2015. She previously developed and coordinated Leica’s partnerships with the Rencontres d’Arles (1988–2015) and Paris Photo (2008–2019).

For over 20 years, she also helped shortlist candidates for the Leica Oskar Barnack Award, which she organised and promoted.

Passionate about photography and creativity, she has been supporting photographers for many years as they develop their work and careers. Her experience, her knowledge of the photography world and her professional network – built up over the course of a particularly diverse career – enable her to bring a keen and committed eye to artistic projects and approaches.
