De Jonckheere inaugurates on 22 June a new space in Monaco with the exhibition 'The Meeting of Masters" bringing together major works by old and Modern masters.
 
Founded in 1976, De Jonckheere Gallery is the art world’s point of reference for 16th and 17th centuries Flemish painting. Since 2012, the gallery has also guided its collectors in the works of the great masters of Modern art. In this vein, the gallery opens the doors of its new space in Monaco on Thursday 22 June 2017 on Avenue Princesse Grace. Influential and frequently visited, Monaco as a city takes on an important role today in the international art scene.
 
The detailed study of the works selected by De Jonckheere, and the energy put in to distinguishing the finest works on the market, have allowed the gallery to establish its reputation and its expertise in the great Flemish masters for the past forty years. Equally, its taste in the paintings by the great masters of Modern art have progressively led the gallery to broaden its activity with the same level of engagement. 
 
Keeping up with the new generation of collectors, De Jonckheere takes a progressive approach which guides beginners in enriching their collections with exceptional works of art.
 
The inauguration of the new space in Monaco marks this momentum, supported by the arrival of the new generation of the De Jonckheere family. De Jonckheere will propose a cycle of three annual exhibitions which will combine its expertise of Flemish painting and that of Modern art in one space, at the centre of Monaco’s cultural landscape.
