Founded in Paris in 1991, Galerie Omagh presents major artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, spanning Modern Art, Nouveau Réalisme, Lyrical Abstraction, and the decorative arts.
The gallery is particularly drawn to works distinguished by the singularity of their vision, the mastery of their materials, and their poetic dimension. Today, Galerie Omagh is actively involved in the rediscovery of the work of Mithé Espelt (1923–2020), a singular and long-overlooked figure in French decorative arts.
Through her mirrors, lamps, jewellery, and decorative objects, Espelt developed a unique body of work at the intersection of fine craftsmanship, artistic creation, and decorative imagination.
