Danielle Orchard Presents New Figurative Paintings at Perrotin Paris Exhibition

The Perrotin gallery in Paris is currently hosting an exhibition titled 'Borrowed Chord' by artist Danielle Orchard. This marks Orchard's second solo presentation in the French capital and her seventh collaboration with the gallery overall. The show features a collection of recent paintings that continue the artist's exploration of figurative representation, personal closeness, and art historical traditions. The exhibition's name references a musical concept where harmonies are taken from related keys, mirroring Orchard's artistic approach of working within established visual frameworks while introducing subtle emotional variations. Her practice engages with modernist fragmentation techniques, classical compositional structures, and depictions of reclining human forms. The exhibition opened recently and will remain accessible to visitors until April 18, 2026.
