Value proposition

Gagosian is a global gallery specializing in modern and contemporary art with nineteen locations worldwide.

Established by Larry Gagosian in Los Angeles in 1980, Gagosian is a global gallery specializing in modern and contemporary art that employs more than three hundred people at nineteen exhibition spaces across the United States, Europe, and Asia. In addition to its galleries, Gagosian is at the forefront of the digital marketplace with innovative online viewing rooms, timed to coincide with major art fairs, that include highly desirable works by today’s leading artists, transparent pricing, historical scholarship, and insightful market analysis.

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.
