Located near PLATEFORME 10, Lausanne’s emerging arts district, Fabienne Levy is a Swiss contemporary art gallery that shows works by an international selection of artists. The gallery was established in 2019 by owner Fabienne Levy, a Swiss collector who had previously worked at Christie’s before becoming a freelance art advisor. In 2023, Fabienne Levy opened a second gallery space in Geneva, in the city’s main gallery district, the quartier des Bains. Fabienne Levy’s aim as a gallery is to present ‘inspiring works’—most of them made exclusively for the gallery space—that foster art as a catalyst for change.
