Danielle Orchard’s Quiet Authority: Figure, Form, and the Modern Tradition
Perrotin is pleased to present Borrowed Chord, Danielle Orchard’s second exhibition in Paris and her seventh with the gallery. The exhibition brings together new works that deepen her engagement with figuration, intimacy, and the history of painting. Borrowing its title from a musical term describing a harmony drawn from a parallel key, the exhibition reflects Orchard’s longstanding practice of working within established pictorial traditions—modernist fragmentation, classical composition, and the reclining figure— while subtly shifting their emotional register.
