En 1994, Gabriela et Mathieu Sismann ouvrent leur premier stand aux Puces de Saint-Ouen. En 1995, ils fondent leur galerie à Paris. Du Louvre des Antiquaires au prestigieux Quai Voltaire, au cours de leurs trente années de carrière, ils se forgent une réputation de leaders sur le marché international de la sculpture ancienne et deviennent une référence pour les clients, amateurs et professionnels, attachés à ce domaine de niche. Située face au Pavillon Flore, où le couple s'est rencontré sur les bancs de l'École du Louvre, la Galerie Sismann est aujourd'hui un lieu unique consacré indifféremment à la sculpture européenne du Moyen Âge, de la Renaissance, des périodes classique et baroque jusqu'à la fin du XVIIIe siècle.
Gabriela et Mathieu Sismann figurent parmi les leaders de la sculpture gothique française, allemande et la Renaissance italienne et sont également présents sur la sculpture baroque italienne et flamande. Chercheurs mus par leur sensibilité, mais aussi par une réflexion sur la spiritualité et sur le creuset de la création artistique, ils conçoivent leurs choix d’acquisitions comme une quête d’œuvres rares, méconnues, oubliées... enrichissant les collections des collectionneurs et des musées les plus éminents tels que le Musée du Louvre (Paris), Musée National du Moyen Âge (Paris), Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), le Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam), Musée National de la Renaissance (Ecouen), Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille, Musée des Beaux-Arts de Strasbourg, Fondation Lambert (Avignon), Tassenmuseum (Amsterdam), Fondation d'art Katoen Natie (Anvers), Le Palais Fesch - Musée des Beaux-Arts (Ajaccio), Residenz Museum (Munich), Fondation Gandur pour l'Art (Genève), Alana Collection (NY), Palazzo Ducale (Mantoue), Musea Brugge (Bruges), Musée Boijmans Van Beuningen (Rotterdam).
La Galerie Sismann se distingue principalement par sa capacité à mettre en lumière des chefs-d'œuvre oubliés de la sculpture ancienne, issus du marché de l'art ou de collections privées. Guidés par leur sensibilité, leurs solides connaissances et un œil inconnu, Gabriela et Mathieu envisagent leurs acquisitions comme une quête d'œuvres rares, méconnues et négligées, et se donnent pour mission de les recontextualiser, d'en retrouver les auteurs et la finalité originelle.
La recherche est au cœur de cette démarche. Celle-ci est tirée en s'appuyant sur la bibliothèque spécialisée du couple, ainsi que sur les ressources documentaires institutionnelles et les bases de données en ligne. Les conclusions de ces études sont validées en amont par un réseau international de consultants spécialisés issus du monde académique et muséal, et finalement publiées.
Born in the United States and raised in Canada, Gabriela Sismann spent her teenage years in Argentina before moving to France in 1991 to study at the École du Louvre and the Sorbonne from where shes graduated as an Art Historian specializing in Italian Renaissance sculpture. In 1994, she and her husband Mathieu founded Galerie Sismann. Alongside her work as an antique dealer and Art Historian, Gabriela is also a designer of "Wearable Works of Art" .
Having inherited his father's passion for collecting, Mathieu Sismann, already an inveterate Art hunter, received a dual academic background in Law and Art History. He specialised in Old Master Sculpture at the École du Louvre and after five years as a trainee auctioneer, he and his wife Gabriela founded Galerie Sismann in 1994. Mathieu is an expert in Old Master Sculpture and a member of the CNES.
A graduate of the École du Louvre and the Sorbonne, Manon Lequio specialises in Medieval Art. She worked for seven years in the conservation departments of a number of major institutions, including the Musée de Louvre, the Musée des Augustins and the Musée de Cluny. In 2019, Manon joins Galerie Sismann and at the same time she continues to teach Medieval and Renaissance Works of Art at the École du Louvre.
