Clément Delépine to lead Lafayette Anticipations after Art Basel Paris

Clément Delépine, who has served as the director of Art Basel's Paris fair since its inception in 2022, will step down following the fourth edition in October 2025. He is set to take on the role of director at Lafayette Anticipations, the arts foundation associated with the Galeries Lafayette department store chain. Before this, Delépine co-directed Paris Internationale from 2016 to 2021 and worked with the Swiss Institute and Bortolami Gallery in New York. He will take over from Rebecca Lamarche-Vadel. Lafayette Anticipations has occupied a repurposed industrial site in the Marais district since 2018, and the Galeries Lafayette group has previously supported Art Basel Paris.
