From its inception, Gagosian has prepared and presented unparalleled museum-quality exhibitions of works by historical artists such as Arakawa, Diane Arbus, Richard Artschwager, Francis Bacon, Louise Bourgeois, Alexander Calder, Willem de Kooning, Walter De Maria, Lucio Fontana, Helen Frankenthaler, Alberto Giacometti, Howard Hodgkin, Roy Lichtenstein, Man Ray, Piero Manzoni, Agnes Martin, Claude Monet, Henry Moore, Jackson Pollock, Cy Twombly, Andy Warhol, Tom Wesselmann, and Zao Wou-Ki, among others. The gallery’s groundbreaking Picasso exhibitions, curated by scholar John Richardson in New York and London, were attended by hundreds of thousands of visitors. In 2019, Larry Gagosian curated an exhibition featuring Picasso masterpieces as a tribute to Richardson following his death. Gagosian began publishing in 1986, becoming the first gallery to establish a publishing house that produces a vast range of catalogues raisonnés, monographs, artist’s books, scholarly exhibition catalogues, and limited editions. Today the gallery has published more than six hundred titles, rivaling the output of traditional arts trade publishers. The print and online editions of the Gagosian Quarterly provide unique access to artists in their studios and homes through insightful interviews and profiles of and by leading art world professionals. With locations in New York and London, the Gagosian Shop curates a coveted selection of rare books, art editions, unique collaborations, posters, jewelry, apparel, and Leica cameras. Gagosian has long developed cultural programming and events with artists, including performances, exhibition tours, public talks, film screenings, and studio visits. The gallery has long been committed to working with and advising artists on all aspects of their legacy planning. In 2018 the gallery launched its Building a Legacy program, bringing together artists and their studio staff with experts in the field of artists’ estates, nonprofit foundations, and legacy stewardship through a series of symposia. With exhibition spaces designed by world-renowned architects such as Caruso St John, Richard Gluckman, Richard Meier, Jean Nouvel, Selldorf Architects, and WHY, Gagosian is able to show a wide range of compelling projects—including work as varied as Jenny Saville’s painterly depictions of the human form, Richard Serra’s iconic monumental sculptures and drawings, and a re-creation of Roy Lichtenstein’s site-specific and temporary wall painting Greene Street Mural.
