ABOUT

Perse is a private gallery devoted to contemporary art and the cultivation of dialogue between artists and collectors. 

Through its House Visit Series, an appointment-only programme hosted in a Mayfair setting, Perse offers an intimate context for viewing and discussion. Showcasing the work of emerging and mid-career artists, Perse encourages considered engagement with new ideas and practices shaping the contemporary moment.

Formerly known as Daa Art, Perse reflects a continued commitment to thoughtful curation, meaningful conversation, and the quiet appreciation of contemporary art.

The name Perse draws inspiration from Persepolis—once the capital of art, luxury, and cultural sophistication—while also alluding to the depth of colours (“perse,” meaning dark blue or purplish) and to Perse of Greek mythology, the daughter of Oceanus and mother of Hecate. Together, these references evoke a dialogue between ancient beauty and contemporary expression.
