Petra Bibeau works across primary market development, institutional acquisitions, and exhibition strategy for contemporary artists.

She began her career at Stephen Wirtz Gallery in San Francisco and later worked with Fraenkel Gallery, supporting exhibition development and curatorial collaborations that expanded programming and institutional visibility in the contemporary realm.

She went on to serve as Director of Casemore Gallery, where she led international fair participation and institutional placements, including Paris Photo and Frieze New York, and developed exhibitions that resulted in first-time museum acquisitions for several artists.

Bibeau later served as Director at Anne Bruder Art Advisory in New York, overseeing multi-city corporate collections and advising on emerging-market acquisition strategy and long-term collection development.

In 2020, she established an independent practice under her own name, working with artists, institutions, collectors, and publishers across exhibitions, placements, and long-term career strategy. Her work operates across primary market representation and project-based collaborations focused on institutional visibility and production.

As a writer and curator, she has developed exhibitions engaging social and political narrative structures, including Austerity (2023), Prescribed Liberalism (2022), Time of W (2022), Considered Interactions (2022), As Far As You Can, Tell the Truth (2021), Handless Operative (2019), A Broken Frame (2019), and Option to the Death of Freedom (2017).

She holds a BA from The New School for Public Engagement and a Certificate in Art Business and Administration from New York University.
