Published by Jenni Sidey

Marian Goodman Gallery will pause operations at its Los Angeles outpost after two and a half years at the conclusion of its current solo show for Tacita Dean on April 25. In a statement sent to ARTnews, the gallery’s four partners, Rose Lord, Junette Teng, Emily-Jane Kirwan and Leslie Nolen, said, “The Partners of Marian Goodman Gallery are consolidating programming to our historic homes in New York and Paris. Our programming will continue to be anchored in these two global art capitals, advancing the transatlantic dialogue between the United States and Europe that has been foundational to our gallery since its inception in 1977.” Related Articles The gallery avoided saying that it would definitely cease operations in LA, stating instead that the partners would “evaluate the next phase for the space” and “maintain our presence in Los Angeles and in cities internationally through special projects, art fairs, and museum exhibitions in support of our artists and clients.” Marian Goodman is the latest blue-chip gallery to close one of its outposts in the past year, with London-based Timothy Taylor closing in New …

Published by Jenni Sidey

Just months after her death in January at 97, Marian Goodman is returning to the market—this time as a consignor. Christie’s will offer works from the dealer’s personal collection during its May marquee sales in New York, led by a group of paintings by Gerhard Richter, with one carrying an estimate as high as $50 million. The material, which once hung Goodman’s Manhattan home, is expected to total around $65 million.  The centerpiece is a selection of seven Richter paintings from between 1982 and 2009, presented at the start of the 21st Century Evening Sale on May 20. Among them is the 1982 painting Kerze (Candle), one the artist’s best-known and most sought after motifs; it carries a pre-sale estimate of between $35 million to $50 million. Related Articles The group doubles as a record of Goodman’s relationship with Richter, whom she began representing in 1985, when his market in the United States remained underdeveloped. Over the following decades, she placed his work with major institutions while holding back key examples—an approach that helped stabilize prices and shape his …

Marian Keyes on The Walsh Sisters: “I never even considered that I would actually hate it”

Marian Keyes on The Walsh Sisters: “I never even considered that I would actually hate it”

Published by Daniella Wilson

The Walsh Sisters author Marian Keyes has said that she “never considered” the possibility that the BBC’s new TV adaptation might not be to her liking. Adapted from her books, the series follows a “dysfunctional, but deeply loveable” family comprised of five sisters, their devout mother and bemused father, all of whom are based in Dublin. The synopsis teases: “This is a sisterhood full of in-jokes, hand-me-down resentments and more than a few old wounds. “But their DNA, history and shared love of power ballads keep the Walsh sisters together in the face of heartbreak, grief, addiction and parenthood.” Keyes is attached to The Walsh Sisters as an executive producer, but told Radio Times that she certainly wasn’t protective over her source material, which she happily handed over to screenwriter and co-star Stefanie Preissner.

Marian Goodman, the art dealer admired for her lifelong loyalty to her artists and her indifference to market trends, died on Thursday in a Los Angeles hospital at 97, ARTnews reported on Sunday. In 1977, at 49, she opened Marian Goodman Gallery in Midtown Manhattan with an exhibition of Marcel Broodthaers, signaling the adventurous sensibility that defined her career. Over five decades, Goodman championed and helped establish many leading figures, often Europeans under-recognized in the US. Once she committed to an artist, she stayed committed for decades. Her roster included Gerhard Richter, Steve McQueen, Julie Mehretu, and William Kentridge. Curator Tom Eccles said that collecting only from Goodman for 40 years would amount to one of the world’s best museums.  MINNEAPOLIS MUSEUMS CLOSE.
