Gagosian
With the help of Leo Castelli, Larry Gagosian opened his first contemporary art gallery in Soho, which focused on postwar artists like Roy Lichtenstein and Bruce Nauman. Gagosian built a worldwide network of historical and contemporary art galleries during the next thirty years. New York, San Francisco, London, Rome, Geneva, and Hong Kong all have extensive collections of leading painters' work. Andy Warhol, Anselm Kiefer, Julian Schnabel, and Damien Hirst have all had works shown in Gagosian's massive New York gallery (20 000 square feet).
Hundreds of thousands of people visited the gallery's revolutionary Picasso shows in New York and London, which were curated by historian John Richardson. Following Richardson's death in 2019, Larry Gagosian produced an exhibition of Picasso's masterpieces as an homage to him. Gagosian has a long history of collaborating with artists on cultural programs and events, such as performances, exhibition tours, public talks, film screenings, and studio visits. The gallery has a long history of assisting and advising artists on all elements of legacy planning. Through a series of symposia, the gallery started its Building a Legacy program in 2018, which brought together artists and their studio staff with specialists in the fields of artists' estates, nonprofit foundations, and legacy management.
