  • For Immediate Release
    For Immediate Release: As Is Is George Condo, John Currin, Chris Johanson, Emily Wardill, Lynette Yiadom-Boakye with a film program curated by Mary Helena Clark & Josh Minkus including Tony Buba, Jem Cohen, Kevin Jerome Everson, Liz Magic Laser, Saul Levine, Joan Logue, Anne McGuire May 7 – June 27, 2015 Opening reception May 7, 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. In 1874, the photographer Julia Margaret Cameron went to work on a series of photographic illustrations for Alfred Tennyson’s Arthurian series of poems, Idylls of the King. Cameron was neighbors with Tennyson on the Isle of Wight, and often enlisted him to sit for her. Cameron once complained, “I want to do a large photograph of Tennyson, and he objects! Says I make bags under his eyes.” In one picture, now one of the indelible images of the poet, Tennyson, outfitted in monastic robes, appears reflective, pious, and in need of a nap. Tennyson dubbed the photograph “The Dirty Monk.” In 1957, Richard Avedon was contracted to photograph the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. The media savvy couple arrived at Avedon’s studio prepared for a stock photo shoot. Knowing they were avid pug lovers (they kept several– Mr. Disraeli, Mr. Chu, Trooper, Imp, Davy Crockett) Avedon, intent on disrupting their carefully composed media face, told them that on his way over his taxi had run over a dog. While they winced in horror he snapped the now famous picture. In 1984, Don Bachardy painted the official gubernatorial portrait of Jerry Brown. One legislator described the work as looking like it was painted with “spilled ketchup and soy sauce.” The portrait proved so unpopular that it was moved to a third floor landing in the state capitol building, far from the other official portraits.

  • JOHN CURRIN: New Paintings
    G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y October 23, 2010 PRESS RELEASE GAGOSIAN GALLERY 980 MADISON AVENUE T. 212.744.2313 NEW YORK NY 10075 F. 212.772.7962 GALLERY HOURS: Tue - Sat 10:00am - 6:00pm JOHN CURRIN: New Paintings Thursday, November 4 – Thursday, December 23, 2010 Opening reception for the artist: Thursday, November 4th, from 6 to 8 pm The people I paint don’t exist. The only thing that is real is the painting. It’s not like a photograph where there’s another reality that existed at a certain moment in time in the past. The image is only happening right now and this is the only version of it. To me, that’s fascinating. It’s an eternal moment. --John Currin Gagosian Gallery is pleased to present new paintings by John Currin. Currin’s depictions of the female figure enchant and repel, often in equal measure. Labeled as mannerist, caricaturist, radical conservative or satirist, Currin continues to confound expectations and evade categorization. While his meticulous and virtuosic technique is indebted to the history of classical painting, the images themselves engage startlingly contemporary ideas about the representation of the human figure. With inspirations as diverse as Old Master portraits, pin-ups, and mid-twentieth century B-movies, Currin continues to paint ideational yet challengingly perverse images of female subjects, from lusty nymphs to more ethereal feminine prototypes. With his uncanny ability to locate the point at which the beautiful and the grotesque are held in perfect balance, he continues to produce subversive portraits of idiosyncratic women in conventional settings.

  • Gagosian Gallery, at Its Beverly Hills Outpost (Through February 17), Makes That Abundantly Clear
    Vogue January 13, 2018 GAGOSIAN In L.A., Rachel Feinstein Finds Inspiration in the Victoria’s Secret Runway Show Dodie Kazanjian Rachel Feinstein studio image, 2017 Photo: Robert McKeever / Courtesy of Gagosian / © Rachel Feinstein It’s an understatement to say that the artist Rachel Feinstein is an over-the-top maximalist. Everything about her is larger than life, and “Secrets,” her debut show with the Gagosian gallery, at its Beverly Hills outpost (through February 17), makes that abundantly clear. This is also her first solo show in Los Angeles, and there’s not one iota of stage fright here. On view are eight life-size figurative sculptures made of high-density foam, 11 collage mirror paintings, and one large, all-white majolica figure made in the famous Nymphenburg porcelain factory in Munich. (She’s already working with the factory on making her L.A. sculptures in porcelain, for her next show.) Rachel’s love of the Rococo and the Baroque, mashed up with her inner, Coral Gables self-assurance that anything and everything goes, have given birth to some of the most insane figurative sculptures you’ll ever see: eight “Angels” based on Victoria’s Secret models, with names like Butterfly, Fireworks, Ballerina, Icicle, and Feathers—fantastical grotesque beauties, pinup girls gone wild. The sculptures are like animals, circus beasts, clowns, tragicomic confections. They wear wildly colorful baby doll lingerie, skimpy thongs, and gem-encrusted underthings. The luxurious plays ball with the gritty, romance with pornography, ostentatious chic with Rachel’s signature raw and goofy awkwardness, which flirts with but never quite tips into vulgarity.

    Corporate News May 10, 2021 Strong Growth at Artnet Auctions Continues in the First Quarter - Fee-based Revenue of Online Auction Platform up 25% Year-Over-Year - Gallery Network Increases Memberships and Revenue - Average Monthly Visitors up 35% at 6.2 Million - Paywall Artnet News Pro Creates Additional Revenue Stream Berlin/New York, May 10, 2021—Berlin-based Artnet AG, the leading provider of art market data and online-only fine art auctions, increased its revenue and media reach in the first quarter of 2021. Fee- based revenue at Artnet Auctions rose by 25% year-over-year to 1.2 million USD, continuing on a strong growth trajectory and setting a new revenue record for a first quarter. Top lots in the first quarter included several works by the iconic American artist Jean-Michel Basquiat. In January, his screenprints Head; Per Capita: Ernok; Rinso (complete set of 4 works) sold for 300,000 USD. Artnet achieved the same price in March for Basquiat’s monumental work on paper Untitled (1981), a large-scale drawing of a car motif. The Gallery Network achieved a turnaround. Its quarterly revenue increased by 4% to 1.3 million USD due to a higher number of memberships and a drop in cancellations. “Galleries depend on the Internet for sales and marketing more than ever,” said Artnet CEO Jacob Pabst. “Membership in the Gallery Network provides a strong online presence, enables global transactions online, and supports the efficient management of inventory with our unique inventory management system.” Artnet introduced the Artist Alerts last year to help drive traffic to gallery members.

  • Six Audacious Art Market Predictions for 2021
    Press Release February 11, 2021 Six Audacious Art Market Predictions for 2021 Artnet’s Sophie Neuendorf about the staying power of digitalization and a renewed focus on quality Berlin/New York, February 11, 2021: The art market just emerged from arguably the most difficult and unpredictable year in recent history. The Covid-19 pandemic caused a synchronized and deep downturn of the global economy and art market in 2020. Social distancing measures and a lockdown of businesses in reaction to the health crisis resulted in falling consumer demand and economic output. According to the Artnet Price Database, global auction sales for fine art fell by a quarter to $9.9 billion in 2020, compared to the previous year. But the Covid-19 pandemic also pushed boundaries and accelerated the art world into the digital age. With this backdrop in mind, Sophie Neuendorf is to take the risk and make six art world predictions for 2021. 1. Digitalization is here to stay Plato was right: necessity is indeed the mother of invention. During the COVID-19 crisis, one area that has seen tremendous growth is digitalization, meaning everything from online customer service to remote working to supply-chain reinvention to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to improve the art business. With galleries, museums, and auction houses pivoting online and thinking outside the box in response to the pandemic, a positive trend of accessibility, efficiency, and transparency accelerated within the art world. This also goes hand in hand with a global trend of sustainability and conscious living. The art market's transactional element will emerge as a strong contender to the traditional brick and mortar purchasing process, democratizing the art market and opening it up to a new generation of art lovers.
