History

In March 2015, Richard Taittinger Gallery’s inaugural group exhibition titled Sinthome featuring artworks by Ding Yi, Théo Mercier, Alexander Ponomarev, Recycle Group, and Wang Du.[3][4]

In Summer of 2015, the gallery announced the exclusive representation of the Estate of Nassos Daphnis.[5] Daphnis was represented by the Leo Castelli for nearly 40 years and is best-known for his embrace of geometric abstraction and development of a Color-Plane Theory. The gallery’s solo exhibition of his work, Pixel Fields, reintroduced Daphnis’ work to a new generation and explored its tantalizing relationship to the work of today’s New media art. [6]
