創辦人艾曼紐．貝浩登（Emmanuel Perrotin） 也擠進2018年「ArtReview 藝術權力百大排行榜」（Power 100）的第54位。負責香港與上海兩地的總監黃知衡（Uli Huang）表示，貝浩登在亞洲設點是希望作為中國與西方連結的平台，他們也發現香港因地處亞洲經貿樞紐，優越的地理位置能提升東西方藝術家在亞洲的能見度，舉例來說，近年主推的中國藝術家陳飛的作品即透過此而登上「巴黎當代藝術博覽會」（FIAC）。

貝浩登參展「台北當代藝博」亦計畫帶來曾在東京和首爾展出過的美國藝術家丹尼爾．阿爾軒（Daniel Arsham）以及日本藝術家聯展。1980 年出生的美國藝術家阿爾軒，以超常美學建構虛擬的考古概念引起注意，他將當代人物和現代的日常品，用沙子、亞硒酸鹽、火山灰等地質的材料，以仿古的形式製作成被埋葬多年後挖掘出來的古老文物，並且指稱這些文物將是未來的遺物，對他而言這些人造物或者廢墟等，意味的正是人類創造萬物的證據。除了裝置作品外，藝術家也透過水粉畫、雕塑與觀念藝術作為藝術形式的表達。跨越了時間與空間，阿爾軒在雕塑、建築、繪畫和電影等不同領域，以跨文化的符號與姿勢賦予永恆的意涵。
Galerie Perrotin: Pioneering Contemporary Gallery Spanning across the East and West
By Chen Yi-Hua
Founded in Paris, Galerie Perrotin cultivates artists with potential and has extended its reach to multiple major Asian cities in addition to its New York space, such as Hong Kong, Seoul, Tokyo, and Shanghai, making it one of the few European galleries actively expanding its market in Asia.
The gallery founder Emmanuel Perrotin was also on the 2018 ArtReview Power 100 list at 54th place. Uli Huang, the Director of Hong Kong and Shanghai spaces, said that Galerie Perrotin has opened spaces in Asia as a means to provide a platform connecting China and the West, they have also found that with Hong Kong's unique position as Asia's trading hub and its strategic geographical position, it can elevate the visibility of their artists in Asia, for instance, Chen Fei, a Chinese artist represented by the gallery, was able to participate if FIAC for this reason.
Galerie Perrotin aims to present a group exhibition of American artist Daniel Arsham, exhibited in Tokyo and Seoul, and Japanese artists in the first annual Taipei Dangdai. Born in 1980, Arsham first received prominence when he built a fictional paleontology concept-structured with unprecedented aesthetics, using sands, sodium selenite, volcanic ash, and other geological materials to create fake artifacts out of contemporary figures and everyday objects that look to have been excavated after years buried, branding these artifacts as relics from the future. For him, these man-made objects of ruins are proofs that human is the creator of all things. In addition to installation work, the artist conveys different art forms through gouache painting, sculpture, and conceptual art. Surpassing the notions of time and space, Arsham has endowed sculpture, architecture, painting, film and others fields with eternity through cross-cultural symbols.
