Michael Werner gallery opens an exhibition in two Upper East Side locations, signaling growth despite a contracting art market. Partner Gordon VeneKlasen cites the importance of the gallery's identity linked to its location, emphasizing the significance of maintaining a presence on the Upper East Side rather than relocating downtown. The gallery's historical roots and commitment to its original setting reflect a strategy focused on artist relationships and community, resisting the trend of closures in the current challenging cultural landscape.
The grandeur of everything is disproportionate to the reality, reflecting this unusual moment in the art world, culture, and political environment.
The spaces are part of the gallery's identity, crucial for attracting artists and maintaining a connection to the Upper East Side.
