President of the Salon Dessin Peinture à l’Eau, joined the Salon Committee in 1984. He knows all the ins and outs. As soon as he was appointed Chairman in 2017, he put all his energy, passion and skills into taking the Salon higher and further. He was one of the handful of artists who created « ART CAPITAL » when the Grand Palais reopened. He was its first general curator, and structured and professionalised its organisation to make it a formidable event for over 2,000 international artists. A painter, set designer, decorator and exhibition organiser, Daniel GALLAIS has also designed a number of theatre sets alongside his son Xavier GALLAIS, an actor and director (winner of the Molière for male revelation in 2004).
