Building on the success of its previous two years, Patrick Perrin and Stéphane Custot have expanded DesignArt London to create a new concept, the Pavilion of Art & Design London. The Pavilion of Art & Design London will mirror its elegant Parisian counterpart, the Pavillon des Arts et du Design Paris, now on its 13th year and held in the prestigious Jardin des Tuileries, by encompassing fine art in its repertoire.

During this time, the Pavilion will house an impressive stable of 45 established international exhibitors who represent the leaders in their respective fields of Modern Art and 20th Century Decorative Arts.
