MARKET: Meet the Gallerists | Applicat-Prazan
Art Basel
Founded in 1993, Franck Prazan’s Applicat-Prazan is a Paris-based gallery participating in the Galleries sector of Art Basel’s Miami Beach show in 2017.
Growing up in the heart of Paris with a gallery founder as a father and the Centre Pompidou as a next-door neighbor, Franck Prazan has never known a day without art. Franck’s father, also an art collector, originally envisioned the gallery centering on artists from the Post-War School of Paris. Franck has honored his father’s legacy by maintaining the same program to this day. When asked what makes a work of art good, Franck says “You can tell. That’s all I have to say. If you have to question about it, then it’s not good enough.”
Applicat-Prazan will be participating in Art Basel’s Miami Beach show for the first time, and exhibiting works by artists such as Pierre Soulages, Zao Wou-Ki, and Maria Helena Vieira da Silva, among others.
