French Film Producer Opens Paris Art Gallery

PARIS—French producer and film director Claude Berri has opened an art gallery in Paris, Bloomberg reports. The gallery, Espace Claude Berri, was designed by architect Jean Nouvel and is situated in a cobbled alley near the Pompidou Center. Berri, an avid collector, plans to show art from his own collection — which includes pieces by Magritte, Dali, Richard Serra, and Jeff Wall — as well as other works by some of his favorite artists. The first exhibition spotlights French multi-media artist Gilles Barbier. Any sales will be split between Berri and the artists' dealers.
