Mennour was founded by modern and contemporary art dealer Kamel Mennour in 1999. Formerly known as kamel mennour, the gallery’s name has now become Mennour - reaffirming the core strategy of the enterprise which is to shed light on the artists themselves, who have been central in shaping its activities over the years and are a constant inspiration. Mennour represents about forty living artists and artistic estates, including leading actors in the field of contemporary art - such as Daniel Buren, Alicja Kwade, Ugo Rondinone, Camille Henrot, Lee Ufan, Anish Kapoor, Ann Veronica Janssens, Bertrand Lavier, Zineb Sedira, Douglas Gordon, Mohamed Bourouissa, Huang Yong Ping -, modern art - such as Jean Degottex, Judit Reigl, François Morellet, Maryan - and some of the most promising, such as Ymane Chabi-Gara and Dhewadi Hadjab. The gallery’s activities include the organization of exhibitions, development of projects in partnership with major cultural institutions, art production, participation in international art fairs, publication of catalogues and essays - all motivated by the promotion of its artists’ works and the transmission of contemporary art to wider audiences.
