Almine Rech

By the mid-1980s she was married to her first husband, businessman Xavier de Froment, for six years[4] and had started selling art, helping friends and clients part with modernist artworks from the likes of Pierre Bonnard, Kurt Schwitters, and Félix Vallotton.

[5] Rech began her career as a gallerist in partnership for 5 years with Cyrille Putman, the son of Andrée Putman, opening a gallery in the Marais in 1989 where they presented a single work by James Turrell, who did not have a European dealer at the time;[6] Robert R. Littman, the director of Centro Cultural Arte Contemporaneo, a private museum in Mexico City, bought the work.

The gallery presents its in-house published catalogs and editions through Almine Rech Editions, featuring a broad collection of new and limited-run books in print and online catalogs and select items can also be found at Almine Rech Paris, Brussels, London, New York, Monaco, and Shanghai.

[38] They lived in Brussels since 2006[39] but have since moved to Monaco, and also maintain a French country estate inherited from Picasso called Boisgeloup.

[42] FABA also supports institutions, including Le Consortium in Dijon, France, Serpentine Galleries in London and the New Museum in New York.
