FROM DALLAS TO DUBAI, Sydney to Shanghai, the global art market
continues to swell its ranks. It can be a Sisyphean chore to keep track
of this international scene—which is why we’ve done some of the
legwork for you, charting the most exciting and noteworthy galleries
around the world. Consider this guide a helpful snapshot of the
ever-growing, globalized hunger for art. And spend some in-depth
time with the dozen dealers we’ve spotlighted throughout the issue,
asking them about their passions, early days, and future ambitions.

CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN | COPENHAGEN
With a gallery located in what was once an auto repair shop in northwest Copenhagen—some distance from the
more picturesque urban center—Andersen has nonetheless injected a new perspective into the Danish city’s
small gallery scene. His roster includes artists like Benjamin Hirte, Astrid Svangren, and Shelly Nadashi—many
of whom stray notably from the more traditional painting practices that, he says, are usually most popular with
Danish collectors. We spoke to Andersen about cultivating local support while maintaining an international profile.
Christian Andersen
Tell us a bit about how your gallery came to be.
My background is in photography, and in 2002 I
started as a curator at the National Museum of
Photography here in Copenhagen. After four years at
the museum, I changed jobs and became a director
at one of the more established galleries here. Then in
2010, when we were still feeling the financial crisis,
it was time to move on again—in fact, times were
so bad that I had little choice but to open on my own.
My first space was a small window front in the
meatpacking district, close to the central station. One
could literally see everything inside from the street.
The space was 16 by 40 feet and had a floor-to-ceiling
window lengthwise. Realizing I really needed some
more room, I eventually moved in the summer of
2015. The new space is in an old working-class area
with small industry, known locally for being a little
rough. We are in a former auto repair shop with
17-foot-high ceilings. The new gallery is almost 3,200
square feet, and we can now do all sorts of things
we couldn’t do in the old space.
What has been your experience of the Danish/
Scandinavian contemporary art scene?
It’s important for me to work with a few local artists.
It grounds the gallery, and we contribute to the landscape here. So I work with a small handful of Danish
artists, but it’s primarily quite an international
program. In fact, much of the program comes out of a
strong link to Vienna and the class of Heimo Zobernig.
I think we have quite a strong art scene here in
Copenhagen. But, interestingly, I find that the most
28
CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN
Broadly, how would you describe the artists on
your roster? Is there any tendency or trait that
ties your program together?
I think the roster is characterized by a certain toughness,
and also by a diversity within it—quite eclectic
bodies of work that are not tied to a single medium or
expression. Language and materiality are clearly
interests. I also work with more female artists than
most galleries in town.
CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN
exciting things take place at either artist-run spaces
or a couple of the very established museums here.
There’s substantial public support for the self-initiated
spaces, and it seems as if an interesting new venue
opens up every year.
How would you characterize the gallery scene and
art market in Copenhagen? Has the introduction
of local fairs like Chart changed it?
The market in Copenhagen is quite conservative, to
be honest, and most collectors here buy paintings,
with the exception of a few very open-minded people
who have collections that can match what you see
internationally. That’s partly why I wanted the gallery
to start doing the international fairs as soon as we
could. We have very good galleries in Copenhagen—
I am highly biased, but a good example is my girlfriend’s
gallery, Bianca D’Alessandro—but it’s also a difficult
market here, and it seems sometimes to set a tone
for what it’s possible to show at some of the mid-tier
galleries in town.
Chart was particularly good for me in 2013, its
debut year. Though the gallery had begun to do fairs
like Independent New York and Liste, it was still
really known only locally by a self-selecting group of
people. So Chart helped introduce the gallery to a
wider Danish public.
What are some of your favorite spots—not
necessarily just to see art—in Copenhagen?
You cannot visit the city without making a stop at the
Louisiana Museum of Modern Art. There’s also a
beautiful restaurant at the nearby harbor if you have
something to celebrate. We have very nice parks
here, and we often just hang out in Kongens Have, next
to our apartment. Otherwise, I really like abandoned
spaces on the outskirts of Copenhagen. But there are
few of them left these days, though Refshaleøen is still
an interesting place, and the northwest, where the
gallery is now located, also still has some gritty charm.

What do you and your artists have coming up?
The National Gallery just acquired an installation
by Rolf Nowotny, who inaugurated our gallery back
in 2010. Carl Mannov is Danish but just graduated
from the academy in Oslo and had a solo show with
Standard Oslo in October. He has an upcoming solo
show with me that will be open through September.
And later in the year, we will have a solo by German
artist Till Megerle. MP

NEW GALERIE | PARIS
Partners Marion Dana and Corentin Hamel opened
New Galerie in 2008. In addition to spearheading
several related projects, like a New York outpost and a
collaboration with the Yves Klein Archives, they have
maintained a strong international roster of up-andcoming artists, including Artie Vierkant, Darja Bajagić,
and Dora Budor, with a multidisciplinary, mediaoriented bent. We spoke to Hamel about running a
“classical” gallery with cutting-edge artists.
Tell us a bit about your roster. How would you
characterize the artists you work with?
We have an international roster, with a number of
emerging artists. We think that they tell us something
about the world as it is today—and maybe tomorrow.
We love artists who have an in-depth way of thinking
through the changes of society. This possible echo,
and how you negotiate between your private situation
and the world at large, is what fascinates us about
the art world. It’s an old story, and the way artists deal
with it is so resilient, from caverns to churches to
airports to social media.

ALL IMAGES: NEW GALERIE
What’s the backstory of New Galerie? Did you
have any particular intentions or goals in starting
this space?
We opened six years ago. The idea from the beginning
was to work as a “classical” gallery, following the
artists and the clients long term. Being a gallerist gives
you access to the whole spectrum of the art world,
from the shippers to the museums, the artists and the
collectors, the writers and the fabricators. This
openness is something that has always interested us,
both in how we make shows and the way we want
to see the world. Artists we work with have this same
sensitivity. Marion and I have worked in many fields
within the art world: galleries, writing, curating,
managing private collections, teaching, auction houses.
NEW GALERIE
For a period of time, you ran a New Galerie outpost
in New York. What was the relationship between
the two spaces?
A good part of the gallery’s activity has always been
linked to the U.S., be it through the artists, clients,
or a cultural dialogue. We wanted to explore this link
more, and live and work there part-time. Ultimately,
rules and mind-sets in the U.S. and Europe are different,
and that’s what interested us. We designed our space
in New York as a project, to learn, meet, and create.
We have since closed the space, but we are very happy
to have done it; we met great people, and the gallery
is still imbued with the results of this experiment.
You work with a younger-skewing group of artists,
some of whom are engaged with new media
or are working in unprecedented zones between
disciplines. How does this sort of programming
fit into the larger Paris gallery scene?
These artists are well received here, at least by a
specific, but active, group of viewers. One of the nice
traditions in Paris has been the interest in welcoming
foreign cutting-edge culture. Classic movies from
abroad are still shown in numerous movie theaters. The
challenging part is that you have to convince people
that the changes are relevant, and people can take some
time to be convinced. The rewarding part is that when
viewers are convinced, they get extremely enthusiastic.
What are some of your favorite places or things to
do—not necessarily art-related—in Paris? We have been living here for a long time—Marion
was born here. Both of us like to walk in the city—you
always get a new perspective on it. This is more
obvious when you come back from a trip abroad. It
is a very dense city, and walking 100 meters often
puts you in a new world.
Tell me about the work in your personal collections.
What’s a dream acquisition? We have a few works from the gallery’s artists. We
do not live with them; we keep them at the gallery.
These works are part of the artists’ history, so we want
to have them ready for showing. As for our dream
acquisition, this may seem too gallery related, but
we would love to be able to acquire more works by the
artists we show. At the end of the day, we show the
artists whose work we like best.

What does New Galerie have coming up in
September and beyond?
In September we will have a show with Christopher
Kulendran Thomas, a very exciting artist we recently
started to represent. He also has a room in the
Berlin Biennale that we are working on. He works on
circulation of values—monetary, cultural, and
geographic—which is a keen interest of ours. MP

The U.K.-born Leighton opened her eponymous
gallery in 2008, with an initial focus on representing
British and American experimental filmmakers
and performance artists. She spoke to us about the
gallery’s intuitive expansion and its growing
roster of artists, which now includes David Diao,
Sharon Hayes, and Sanya Kantarovsky in the fold.

What led you to open your own gallery?
I was a student at Glasgow School of Art when I joined
Transmission Gallery—an artist-run space in the
East End of Glasgow. Transmission ran on a rolling
committee basis, where five people worked together
for a period of two and a half years, organizing the
shows and collaboratively overseeing all aspects of
running the gallery. Together, Will Bradley, Eva
Rothschild, Kirsty Ogg, Toby Webster, and I organized
anywhere between 12 and 16 shows a year, as well
as numerous projects and events, all on a shoestring
budget and with little or no experience to speak
of. There was a dynamic energy and an interesting
crossover of art, design, and music—Franz Ferdinand’s
song “Do You Want To” references the art and parties
of the time: “Here we are at the Transmission party / I
love your friends / they’re all so arty / oh yeah!”
Transmission was part of a phenomenon of artist-led
initiatives in Britain that peaked in the mid ’90s—
along with the likes of City Racing and Cubitt Gallery—
and was significant for making ambitious shows with
established artists like Lawrence Weiner and Hanne
Darboven while giving the first-ever solo shows to
young local artists like Jim Lambie and David Shrigley.
It also was a platform for international artists like
Jackie McAllister or Art Club 2000 to exhibit. I think it
was the combination of working closely with and for
other artists, being part of a committed shared project
with a frenetic turnover and unbeatable energy, that
sparked my desire for independent and self-initiated
projects and ultimately led me to open my own space.
Can you identify any significant changes in the
direction of the gallery over the years?
I detoured between a number of curatorial positions—
from Dundee Contemporary Arts to the Whitney
Museum and ICA at the University of Pennsylvania in
Philadelphia—and various editorial and publishing
projects before finding myself in Berlin and realizing
that the city afforded both the time and the conditions to
start something. I opened on July 4, 2008, perfectly
timed right before the global financial crisis. If my
work hadn’t already been cut out for me, it certainly
was by October of that year. So, yes, fortunately I’ve
seen significant changes since then! This wasn’t
to do with a shift in programming, rather a reflection
of collector confidence rebuilding as the economic
situation slowly became more robust.
The program was developed out of my associations
with American and British experimental cinema,
artist’s film and video, performance, Minimalist and
Conceptual art. I was interested in artists with a
predominantly strong political focus or who had been
DAV I D V E L A S C O
TANYA LEIGHTON | BERLIN
ignored by the art market, and working within
mediums like film, video, and performance. Artists
who have joined the gallery more recently widened
its focus from moving image and performance
to include more painting, sculpture, and installation.
It continues to be important for me to maintain a
mix of younger positions along with established artists,
marginalized figures, and historical frameworks.
A L L I M AG E S : A L E KS A N D R A D O M A N OV I C A N D TA N YA L E I G H TO N
Can you describe the art scene around you in Berlin?
It’s an incredible international community comprising
brilliant young artists, writers, curators, and gallerist
friends. Sadly, it’s notoriously weak on the institutional
side, but the commercial gallery programs and artistrun spaces fortunately compensate for this shortcoming.

What do you have planned for fall and beyond?
In September we are dedicating both gallery spaces
to Studio for Propositional Cinema from Düsseldorf,
which was founded in 2013. For Art Basel Miami
Beach, we are presenting new works by Aleksandra
Domanović and Oliver Laric, two young Berlin-based
artists using cutting-edge technologies to explore
methods of production and reproduction and shed light
on past, present, and potential future politics. We are
introducing the work of a couple new artists to our
program, including an exciting young artist from New
York, Sam Anderson, and the wonderful Marianne
Wex, a German artist who started out as a painter
before producing her photographic project “Let’s Take
Back Our Space,” one of the great unsung works of
1970s feminist history and cultural analysis.
What would you say was the biggest challenge in
opening and running your own gallery?
The biggest challenge is never having enough time
to do everything I would like to do for the artists at the
level of professionalism I aspire to, and never having
deep enough pockets. MP

SADIE COLES HQ | LONDON
Since founding her gallery in 1997 and making a name as a notable supporter of the YBA s, Sadie Coles has been a
stalwart on the London art scene with her Mayfair and Soho spaces. With a roster that includes Sarah Lucas,
Carl Andre, Matthew Barney, and Elizabeth Peyton, the dealer says her modus operandi has always been to base
her programming “entirely on gut feeling.” We spoke with Coles about the London scene and falling in love.
How did you first become involved in the arts?
I always wanted to be involved. Artists are wizards,
and who wouldn’t want to assist a wizard? I worked for
a museum first—Arnolfini, in Bristol—and then
for Anthony d’Offay. The artists he represented and
the quality of the exhibitions were exceptional. His
gallery raised the bar and was very inspiring. It remains
an influence.
Can you describe the art scene around you in
London, especially the areas you’ve operated in?
There has been a massive expansion of activity in
London over the past 20 years. It is incomparable now.
Tate Modern, Frieze, the YBA generation—all have
contributed to drawing the international art world
46
here. The auction houses followed the energy, and
London is now indisputably the second art place after
New York. In 1997 you could not imagine that was
going to happen. Amazing really. I was always very
conscious that much of the business in London is
transient, and I have therefore remained committed to
the idea of the West End. It is a big city, so you want
to be accessible for someone who is only here for
a day. Mayfair is now full of galleries, but it was rather
sleepy 10 years ago. Now it has a real glamour, and
Soho has a more downtown energy. I like to be in both.
What specific places—art-related or other—
would you recommend to a visitor?
Sir John Soane’s Museum is a treat, a perfect cabinet

Sadie Coles
of an 18th-century collection from the era of the Grand
Tour permanently installed in a house he designed.
Then there’s the ornate Pre-Raphaelite splendor of
Leighton House Museum in Kensington. I would also
encourage a visit to some of the newly invested-in
regional art centers: Manchester Art Gallery and the
Whitworth in Manchester, or the Hepworth Wakefield,
for instance. We have good trains! And London is
now a great place for food. Lunch at Margot Henderson’s
Rochelle Canteen at Arnold Circus has to be one of
the greatest of local pleasures.
Which artists do you feel particularly drawn to
representing or supporting? Is there something
that especially sparks your interest?
This is the most difficult question to answer and the
most frequently asked. It is just a gut feeling. Like
falling in love.
What has been the biggest challenge in opening
and running your own gallery?
The biggest challenge when we opened was finding
enough collectors in London. But because there were
fewer galleries, it was easier to put together a program
of very good artists. The biggest challenge in 2016
is the overcrowding and the fast pace. It is getting more
and more difficult to maintain your relationships with
artists, collectors, and museums while you are on a
plane 24/7 and doing eight fairs a year, plus exhibitions
in multiple spaces. Ours is a very specific business
model that relies on personal relationships.

pink foam blocks,

What do you have coming up?
In the fall we have a show of new work by Laura Owens,
which is very exciting because she always surprises
and pushes the discourse about painting forward. She
is a radical. In November I will have my sixth exhibition
with John Currin, whose show opened the gallery in
1997. That makes me very happy.
Anything else you’d like to add?
I am hopeful that culture can only become more
important as labor is replaced by computers.
We human beings like to dream, to think, to create.

Luisa Strina
Opening her gallery under Brazil’s military dictatorship
in 1974, Strina delivered to the repressive society
a burst of color with the introduction of American Pop
art from the likes of Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein.
She has also since helped pave the way for South
American artists abroad, including Laura Lima,
Alfredo Jaar, Renata Lucas, and others. Strina reflected
on the more than 40 years that she has spent running
one of the most innovative galleries in the Americas.
Your venue is considered São Paulo’s first art
gallery. It was also the first Latin American
art gallery admitted to Art Basel, in 1992. How
did you manage all these firsts?
The secret is a never-ending curiosity and a sincere
passion for the arts. I never settled when my artists
were becoming established, nor did I stop looking at
what was happening around me. I’ve been through
a lot: representing counterculture artists during the
military regime, surviving three economic recessions,
and conducting business within a bureaucratic and
protectionist government. Nevertheless, I’ve never
ceased to be moved and surprised by my artists’ work. In what ways have you seen São Paulo’s art scene
change—for better or worse—since you opened
in the mid 1970s?
60
It has grown and become very professional—and
sometimes I miss the days when it was more informal
and spontaneous! What was your biggest show in the past year?
“Risk Contract,” by Beto Shwafaty, his first presentation
at the gallery. It resulted from a six-year study into oil
as a kind of symbolic epicenter of political discourse
over the last six decades in Brazil. It was a timely
exhibition given our current political situation, and
a window for Beto, who is now showing in Milan and
Amersfoort, Netherlands, and will show next year
in Los Angeles, as part of the Getty Museum’s Pacific
Standard Time initiative.
What would be a dream art acquisition for you,
without worrying about the work’s price or
availability? The Sistine Chapel!
Is there anything in particular you’re looking
forward to at the São Paulo Biennial opening in
September?
The presentations of Erika Verzutti, Francis Alÿs,
and Pierre Huyghe. Are there any aesthetic currents you see taking
place in São Paulo right now?
I would say there is a lot of self-reflection on our

sociocultural background and on our political situation.
There is also a desire to pursue a more global, less
“exoticized” language.
What is a typical day like for you?
I wake up early and go to the gym, then I come to
the gallery and spend the day with clients, visitors,
and friends. My office space is open, so visits are often
spontaneous—it has always been that way. I have
dinners and events with friends nearly every night of
the week, and when I don’t, I am happy to have an
early night in, especially after coming back from travels. What exhibitions or projects do you have planned
in the months to come?
During the biennial we will have a group show
curated by Ricardo Sardenberg that’s based on the
ludic aspect of art. We recently reopened our former
space, now called Anexo, to host longer and more
experimental projects. So expect some surprises at
the “old new gallery.” MP

Mónica Manzutto and José Kuri
New York when Gabriel Orozco
approached us with the initial idea:
that there was great need for
a gallery to represent a generation
of artists who were already
very active in the Mexican scene.
What is the collector base like in
Mexico City, and how have you seen
it change since the gallery opened?
A collector base has never been a
consideration, and it certainly did not
make us decide for or against our
project back in 1999. When we first
opened the gallery, there were very few
collectors in Mexico City. It was
almost a desert in terms of collecting,
but that was not important to us.
There were two or three really wellinformed buyers, such as Patrick
Charpenel and Eugenio López, who
was just starting the Jumex Collection,
but we focused on finding collectors
abroad. This was before the globalization of the art market and art fairs,
so we had to travel extensively and
meet people face to face. (“E-mail,
what is that?”)
How do you end a typical workday?
At Salon Ardalio, our nearby cantina,
having a drink with one or many of the
gallery artists.
From humble, decidedly DIY beginnings, Kurimanzutto
has grown into a powerhouse gallery in Mexico. We
spoke to cofounder José Kuri on how the space came to
represent a who’s who of internationally renowned
talent, including Adrián Villar Rojas, Danh Vo, Abraham
Cruzvillegas, Gabriel Orozco, Monika Sosnowska,
and Sarah Lucas.
How did you get your start in the art world,
and what eventually inspired you to open your
own gallery?
I have always been exposed to art. My older brother
[Gabriel Kuri] decided he wanted be an artist at a very
young age, so I grew up in that atmosphere, with
plenty of friends in common.
[Cofounder and wife] Mónica Manzutto came into my
life later on; she had fresh eyes for everything and we
decided to open the gallery. We were both studying in
64
What’s a place in Mexico City—art-related or
other—that you would suggest a first-time visitor
check out?
Museo Anahuacalli. It is the modern-day version of a
pyramid, designed by Diego Rivera and completed after
his death. It was meant to house his studio and his
pre-Columbian ceramics collection. It’s a hidden jewel.
Can you tell us a bit about some of the artwork
in your own collection—the pieces you live with on
a daily basis?
We have many artworks from the gallery’s artists, and
DIEGO PEREZ AND KURIMANZUTTO
KURIMANZUTTO | MEXICO CITY
Do you find that there is a shared
spirit or ambition, however broad,
among the artists you work with?
Absolutely. The gallery is a family, and it could not
exist without a shared vision of the world. As much as
we may work as individuals and with artists who
have their own unique careers and projects, the feelings
and ideals we share are the motor that keeps us
going together.

we like to contrast them with more historical works: our
beloved André Cadere stick alongside a beautiful
Metaesquema by Hélio Oiticica, and a late 1950s mask
by Mexican Estridentista artist Germán Cueto (Mónica
gave it to me as a birthday present). We also have
photographs by Armando Salas Portugal and a
vignette by Mexican modernist artist-anthropologist
Miguel Covarrubias, depicting a Balinese woman.
BOTH IMAGES: OMAR LUIS OLGUIN
Looking back at the past year, what’s one gallery
exhibition that you’re especially proud of?
The “Taller de los viernes” (Friday workshop)
exhibition, curated by Guillermo Santamarina. This
show brought together the work of Abraham
Cruzvillegas, Damián Ortega, Dr. Lakra, Gabriel Kuri,
and Gabriel Orozco. I met many of those artists
through my brother back in the late 1980s, and it’s
amazing that we still enjoy and have fun working
together, after almost 30 years.
What projects do you have planned in the
near future?
Parallel to the gallery program, we have a billboard
exhibition space called Sonora 128 that we
inaugurated in March with Wolfgang Tillmans.
Upcoming projects will be authored by Antonio Caro,
a legendary Colombian artist, and (I hope)
Patti Smith. Also, we have an exhibition coming up
in an old cantina with photographs by Japanese
artist Nobuyoshi Araki.
Let’s say I’m a young collector who has earmarked
around $5,000 for a single, modest acquisition in
2016. Without knowing my hypothetical tastes, of
course, are there any works in this price range
toward which you might steer me?
It is not at all a modest amount, and it can be a very
powerful sum if it’s well spent. Rather than give
a name, I would recommend you try to believe in that
impulse, in your intuition. Do not buy a piece because
it is a must-have, or what one ought to buy, but
because you are following a well-informed, studied gut
feeling. Trust your instinct. MP

I realize I am in a very privileged position, and I do not
take that lightly. I consistently advocate for my artists,
and it can be years before the reward or acclaim comes.
As artists grow, the challenge can be when to say
no, when to filter opportunities so as not to overexpose
or overcommit. Maintaining integrity is paramount.
Who’s someone you’ve worked with since the
beginning of his or her career?
Toyin Ojih Odutola came to us after Hank Willis
Thomas did a studio visit with her while she was still
in graduate school. This was in 2011, and since then
we have helped build her career and have watched
it evolve tremendously in a very short period of time.
In the last few years, Odutola has had solo exhibitions
at Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis and the
Indianapolis Museum of Contemporary Art, and her
work has entered the collections of the Whitney, the
Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the National Museum
of African Art in Washington, D.C., among others.
JACK SHAINMAN GALLERY | NEW YORK
Founded in Washington, D.C., in 1984, Jack Shainman
Gallery soon relocated to New York’s East Village.
A jump to SoHo and then to Chelsea followed, with an
expansion in 2013 that included a second Chelsea
location as well as a satellite in an old schoolhouse
in Kinderhook, New York. Known for a particular focus
on artists from Africa and its diaspora, the gallery’s
roster includes El Anatsui, Carrie Mae Weems, and
Nick Cave. We spoke to Shainman about creating new
markets, and sustaining them for more than 30 years.
You’ve worked with many of your artists since very
early in their careers. How do you handle their
professional evolution?
It is very rewarding to work long-term with artists. To
understand an artist’s practice so deeply is incredible.

Jack Shainman
FROM LEFT: BARKLEY L. HENDRICKS AND JACK SHAINMAN GALLERY; JACKIE NICKERSON
To what do you attribute the growing market for
and museum interest in artists from Africa and
of African descent? I’m not sure I can speak to the origins or enormity
of that trend. Everything is certainly becoming more
global, and the art world is not immune. From the
beginning, Claude Simard—my partner in the gallery
and cofounder—and I were adamant about finding
art that was unlike anything else being exhibited
in New York, and part of
that happened to be artists
working in Africa or of African descent. The work was
overlooked for so long, and
I have been advocating for a
more inclusive art world for
decades. Needless to say,
I’m very pleased this work
is finally getting its due.
BARKLEY L. HENDRICKS AND JACK SHAINMAN GALLERY
What was the most
popular show at the
gallery this past year?
Barkley L. Hendricks’s
exhibition this spring
received a tremendous
response—critically and
attendance-wise. The
politics are definitely a
draw, the way he’s inserted
himself into this contested
climate, but much more
than that is his position as
an under-recognized
master of the highest order.
At his best, Hendricks
has the sensitivity of a
Renaissance painter; the
magnificent detail and
chiaroscuro in Manhattan
Memo, for example,
combines his acerbic wit
with a command of painterly technique. I am
glad a new generation is
rediscovering him. His
work is urgently necessary
now more than ever.
Where do you see more potential for growth?
I think this emphasis on African artists—while ultimately well intentioned, as a sort of corrective to the
canon—can also be problematic. Many of my artists
feel that the label of “black artist” is limiting and holds
them back from being considered on artistic merit. It is
of course important to have discussions about diversity,
but if artists of African descent are constantly being
questioned about race, we’re not getting anywhere.
Which of the gallery’s artists should we watch in
the year to come?
Needless to say, the Kerry James Marshall retrospective
at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, which
will travel to the Metropolitan Museum and the Museum
of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, will be a mustsee. Nick Cave will also be opening a major exhibition
at Mass MOCA in October. He is always an ambitious
artist, but for this show he’s really going above and
beyond. I don’t want to say too much because it’s really
shaping up to be an experiential installation, but the
idea centers around what it would be like to be inside
one of his sound suits. Finally, in April 2017 we will
open our first exhibition with Becky Suss, with whom
we just started working. MP

OVERDUIN & CO. | LOS ANGELES
Lisa Overduin
Coming up on its 10-year anniversary, Hollywood
gallery Overduin & Co. has stayed put through
numerous changes in the geography (and density) of
the Los Angeles art world. Owner Lisa Overduin—a
former director at Angeleno mainstay Regen Projects
and a longtime West Coast resident—oversees a
program that balances experimentation with a keen
intelligence; artists on her roster
include Merlin Carpenter, Haim
Steinbach, Math Bass, and Sergei
Tcherepnin, and this fall she
will stage solo presentations by
Erika Vogt and Blake Rayne. We
spoke to Overduin about sticking it
out on Sunset Boulevard and
L.A.’s broadening art audience.
You’ve run a gallery in L.A. for
more than a decade at this
point. What are you especially
drawn to in the Los Angeles
art scene? What are some of the
shifts that you’ve observed
during that time?
I opened the gallery in Hollywood
because I wanted the space to be a
part of the everyday fabric of the
city. I liked that it was originally a shop and that you
could walk to the record store or the movies from there.
When we launched, there weren’t really any galleries
in the neighborhood, so when people came to the space
it was really because they wanted to see that specific
show. The area was a lot rougher when we first opened,
and our part of it reminded me of Ed Ruscha’s book
Every Building on the Sunset Strip. Developers had not
yet gotten to our side of Sunset. It had a feeling that

Tell us a bit about the origins
of your gallery.
It opened in 2007 with a show by
Tony Conrad. We presented
Beholden to Victory, a video that
Tony made with Mike Kelley.
Visitors were asked to choose
to be military or civilian, and we
photographed each to make
badges to wear in the installation.
At the time, the gallery was a
single 1939 storefront on Sunset
Boulevard. The building is part of
the Crossroads of the World complex.
Over the years, we’ve expanded
into the three adjoining storefronts.
OV E R D U I N & C O .
was very specific to L.A.: endless strip malls. The
Crossroads was actually the first mall on the West
Coast. The original owners went around the world in a
boat for their honeymoon and came back and built the
complex. The central building is shaped like a boat, and
there’s a little Bavaria, a Moroccan building, etc. There
are so many great stories around every corner. Man Ray
had a studio nearby, and Kenneth Anger lives a few
blocks away.
What do you make of recent publicity given to the
New York-to-L.A. art world migration? Has it had
an impact on your artists, community, or collector
base in any measurable way?
There is a long history of galleries opening an L.A.
branch for a few years. I think this seems to happen in
cycles. I do think there is something important about
a gallery as an entity that is very specific to the city
it’s in. Sometimes the satellite gallery works and really
adds to the conversation, and other times it feels like
a crude export of wares. Many new interesting artist-
run spaces have opened up as well. There are also
a number of collectors setting up homes in Los
Angeles and spending the summer or winter here now,
and it’s wonderful to have an expanded audience
in town. L.A. used to be more isolated, and there was
something nice about that, actually. The art schools
were very dominant, and the artists were really
each other’s main audience and support. The hyperprofessionalization of artists can be sad. But I
think you just engage with what is important to you
and support those situations.

Co., 2014.
Aside from your gallery, of course, what are some
of your favorite local spots?
Baroo is my latest obsession. The most amazing
fermented foods!
If you could add any work to your personal
collection, what would it be?
The Toulouse-Lautrec tambourine at the Art Institute
of Chicago. I’d just borrow it for a while. MP

Mathieu Borysevicz
BANK | SHANGHAI
American-born curator, critic, and artist Mathieu
Borysevicz launched MAB Society, a curatorial and
consultancy firm, in 2012. A fortuitous move from its
office space the following year led him to Shanghai’s
historic Bund district, where he reopened in a former
bank building. Thus, Bank, MABSociety’s commercial
venture, was born. In mid June, however, Bank was
evicted on short notice due to new government policies.
At press time, Borysevicz was hopeful that a new
permanent home for the gallery would be found.

You show a mix of Chinese and Western artists.
What is the market like for Western artists in China?
We exhibit non-Chinese artists’ work because we are
interested in all art, not just art made in China. We also
actively chart the possibility of a meaningful discourse
between Chinese art and the rest of the world, and vice
versa. Selling is another matter. Certainly, there are
Chinese collectors buying Western art, but often these
are name-brand artists bought from blue-chip galleries.
We have shown and sold some very name-brand Western artists but found that the sophisticated Chinese
collector wants more than just to buy something meaningful and worthwhile. They are seduced by the
lifestyle of contemporary art; they use art as a way to
travel to fairs, studios, galleries; join exclusive parties;
drink fine wine; meet famous people. We are focused
on the program, the epistemological aspects of the
trade, if such a thing exists. So selling is more of
an obstacle.
MABSOCIETY
You were involved with contemporary art in the
region long before you opened your own space.
What ultimately inspired you to launch MABSociety
and, later, the Bank?
MAB Society was a natural outcome of my independent
activities at the time. I had just left as director of
Shanghai Gallery of Art and was doing a mishmash of
writing, publishing, consulting, and independent
curatorial projects. I conceived of MAB Society as a way
to tie all these activities together in a neat little
bundle. It was also a way to appear bigger than just
me, my laptop, and my diligent assistant, Sophie.
When I was at the gallery, I realized that an art space
is the sum of its attendant members: its artists,
audience, collectors, media, etc.—in effect, it is a
society. Everyone is equally important to the system.
Bank was the gallery space. After a year of working
out of a 25th-floor office, MAB Society lost its lease
and, while looking around for a new one, miraculously
landed at the dilapidated but extremely charming
Bank Union Building, circa 1925. I had no intention of
opening a gallery, but the space beckoned us to do
so. Initially, we thought of ourselves as “post-gallery”
or “curatorial studio,” but then we kind of started to
behave like a conventional gallery.

Are there any developments in the Shanghai
art scene that are especially promising to you?
Where do you see potential for growth?
Over the last five years or so, Shanghai
has seen a flurry of new private museums,
coupled with a trio of new international
art fairs and the rise of a tight-knit group
of young collectors—not to mention
new galleries like ours, Leo Xu Projects,
and Antenna Space. These have certainly
lifted Shanghai into the international
spotlight and are giving Beijing a run for
its money as the capital for contemporary
art in China. However, it is the influx
of young artists and art workers that is
really changing the landscape in a fundamental way. Shanghai has no prestigious
art academy and is more expensive than
other cities in China, so it has always
lacked the ability to attract young artists,
but now that is changing. Both affordable
studios and the escape from Beijing’s
pollution have brought a bunch of artists
and art workers to Shanghai. This will
change the scene from the bottom up.

What was coming up when Bank was evicted?
We have shows scheduled up through the end of next
year and do intend to realize them. In July we planned
to have Lin Ke, a wonder kid whose video and
installation work is so dumb that it’s supersmart. At
the same time, in our project room we were to have a
solo by painter Xinyi Cheng, who’s currently at the
Rijksakademie in Amsterdam. In September we would
have had Patty Chang, making her solo debut in China
with a research-based project in greater Asia. In
November we were planning a show by New York–based
Austin Lee, whose funky paintings, sculptures, and
animations were recently seen at the M Woods museum
in Beijing. And in the project room, we’d have had
Nabuqi, a Mongolian sculptor whose work is quite
traditional. We were also spearheading a big Marina
Abramović exhibition for autumn 2017 at the Power
Station of Art and working on some other institutional
exchange projects through MAB Society. MP

SARAH COTTIER GALLERY | SYDNEY
Established in 1993, the gallery opened its first brick-and-mortar location in Sydney’s Inner West after its
founder started dabbling in the art fair circuit. Cottier, who runs the gallery with Ashley Barber, her partner and
codirector, first signed sculptor and installation artist Hany Armanious and has grown the roster to 30 primarily
Australian artists. Running the gamut from emerging to established artists, they include the likes of Simon
Denny, Tony Schwensen, Haines & Hinterding, Julie Fragar, and Sandra Selig. Cottier spoke about how the
gallery has evolved alongside the city’s flourishing cultural scene.
Sarah Cottier and Ashley Barber
Can you identify any significant changes
in programming or direction over the years?
The first 10 years of the gallery’s life were spent
representing a small group of artists, our generational
peers, and attending many international art fairs
(Basel, Armory in New York, ARCO Madrid). We have
since wearied of art fair culture and in the last
decade have focused on the local scene, developing a
group of younger artists within the gallery as well.
What is the art scene like in Sydney?
The gallery has operated out of four very different
spaces. The first two were in Newtown and Redfern,
areas west of the city center that have begun only
recently to become gentrified. As a result, we were
very used to operating as a destination gallery.
This isolation provided a certain liberty, and it was
nice to be located close to where our artists lived
and had studios. The last two gallery locations have
been in Paddington, in the eastern suburbs of Sydney,
an area that has operated as a gallery precinct
since the 1960s. Because of Sydney’s development
around the meandering geography of the harbor,
various art centers have developed in distinct
suburban pockets. Having a car is essential to being
a good art acolyte in Sydney! Being located in
Paddington means that we are close to our clients
who can visit us as part of a larger gallery crawl.
What should a visitor to Sydney be sure not to miss?
Apart from visiting the Art Gallery of New South Wales
and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, one
should be sure to visit Artspace in Woolloomooloo;
the commercial galleries Minerva and the Commercial;

SARAH COTTIER GALLERY
Has the artistic climate changed over time?
Australia has always had a very well-informed and
active artist scene. In some respects, its ingenuity and
originality have developed as a result of our relative
geographic isolation. The Australian art audience,
however, has been a slowly building creature. Over the
last 20 years, we have witnessed the evolution of
what is now a sophisticated group of collectors with
an inquiring, international outlook.
JAMIE NORTH AND SARAH COTTIER GALLERY
and artist-run spaces Alaska and First Draft. Obvious
beachgoing aside, under-sung spots include harborside
beach Nielsen Park and, for the adventurous, the Royal
National Park, an hour’s train ride south. Eating is
important, and Sydney doesn’t disappoint: 10 William
Street is a favorite of ours.
Is there a prevailing sensibility or aesthetic in the
work of the artists you represent?
The recipe is difficult to distill. There are varying
considerations with every artist. Drive and an unwavering commitment are prevailing factors, along with
the facility to surprise and annoy. A little frisson goes
a long way.
What do you have coming up?
September is the beginning of spring in Australia,
and to coincide with the seasonal spirit of renewal we
are staging an exhibition of Jamie North’s extraordinary
concrete sculptures. He uses the by-products of
industry to create large, preemptively ruinous concrete
forms that are then planted with a variety of indigenous Australian plant species that, over time, performatively interact with the obdurate forms. October will
see an exhibition of new work by Todd McMillan—
whose romantic use of the cyanotype process will this
time address the magic of the aurora borealis—and
Koji Ryui, whose poetic assemblages of found objects
will occupy our second gallery. All sorts of other interesting activities are taking place with the gallery
artists over the next few months: Haines & Hinterding
will be sending a camera 20 kilometers high to record
the sounds and sights at the edge of space, and painter
Huseyin Sami will be producing a spectacular light
treatment for the façade of the Museum of Contemporary Art for Sydney’s 2016 Vivid festival. MP

SFEIR-SEMLER GALLERY | BEIRUT, LEBANON, AND HAMBURG, GERMANY
Based in Germany since the mid 1980s, with a second location founded in Beirut in 2005, Sfeir-Semler is known for its strong roster of
contemporary artists from the Arab world—as well as showing a handful of European and American Conceptualists—including Walid
Raad, Yto Barrada, Mounira Al Solh, Hans Haacke, Khalil Rabah, Rayyane Tabet, and Robert Barry. We spoke with Andrée Sfeir-Semler
about the roles of the gallery’s two spaces and how political shifts in Lebanon have affected the Beirut contemporary art scene.
How did Sfeir-Semler’s Beirut space come to be?
The gallery first opened in 1985, in Kiel, Germany, and
we moved to Hamburg in 1998. At the beginning of the
2000s, we started working with a new generation of
artists from the Arab world, such as Walid Raad, Akram
Zaatari, Rabih Mroué, and Marwan Rechmaoui, who
104
had just emerged from the civil war in Lebanon. It was
a time when Beirut was booming: The Lebanese who
left during the war were coming back, everyone was
investing in the city, the budding art scene was taking
shape. It was then that we decided to open a space
in Beirut. It would be the first gallery of this scale—the
FROM LEFT: O. PASCHEIT; MARWAN RECHMAOUI AND SFEIR-SEMLER GALLERY

our embassy. It is also our general
quarters for practical issues, like
customs, storage, communication,
travel, and transport.
What are some of the common
threads among the artists
you represent?
What I look for are subtle yet very
powerful messages. All our artists
have a conceptual approach, and
they are not decorative. They usually
aren’t very easy to place, but they
have stories to tell, or an element,
a shape, or a color to show in a very
thoughtful, very complex way. Tell me a bit about the contemporary art scene in Beirut. What
are some of your favorite spaces or
local artists? It’s nothing like it was 10 years
ago. So many initiatives have
excelled and changed so much in
the city. Ashkal Alwan, Beirut
Art Center, Metropolis, and
98 Weeks have programs that, at
long last, make contemporary
art accessible. And the city is
responding! I try to attend as many
exhibitions and art activities in
Beirut as possible. I do many studio
visits, and I’ll follow the work
of artists in the area closely before
taking some of them on board.
first white cube to show contemporary art in the whole
region. We opened in April 2005, just two months after
the assassination of Prime Minister Hariri and the
“Cedar Revolution” changed everything in the country.
Around 1,800 people attended the opening!
You have locations in both Beirut and Hamburg.
What’s the relationship between the two spaces?
Bridging East and West is always a very complicated
balance. We do the same program in both places for
different reasons: In Hamburg and at international art
fairs, we introduce contemporary Arab art to a Western
public, and in Beirut, we mirror what is happening
locally. While Beirut is our soil, we need Hamburg as
What do you like to do in the city
that’s not art-related?
Meeting with friends. Having a
drink and some fish after a refreshing swim at Sporting
Club Beach.
Can you tell us a bit about the work in your
personal collection?
In fact, I am not a collector: I am more an agent to my
artists. I am more keen on placing the works in important
museum collections than on keeping them. I collect
the leftovers from my own artists that no one wants!
What upcoming exhibitions do you have planned?
Our next show in Beirut is with Haig Aivazian. In
Hamburg, we are opening a show with Mounira Al Solh
in early September, followed by Etel Adnan. MP

GALLERY 1957 | ACCRA, GHANA
Launched earlier this year by Lebanese-born construction-industry heavyweight Marwan Zakhem, Gallery 1957 is striving to provide
a forum for Ghanaian artists to show (and sell) their work in their home country. Sited in the Kempinski Hotel Gold Coast City, the
gallery represents local artists like experimental photographer Zohra Opoku and sculptor Serge Attukwei Clottey, known for cutting
and combining everyday objects into lush tapestries. We spoke with Zakhem about his mission.
appreciative of art, and while for now there are only
a handful of established collectors, naturally as the
scene evolves, there will be more people who wish to
start. I am a strong believer that the best markets are
where there is a local appreciation and the gallery aims
to play a role in helping develop this. We saw a lot of
interest from Ghanaians in collecting Clottey’s work,
and that was encouraging. It is our ambition to cultivate
and grow this collecting community over time.
How did you get your start in the art world, and
what inspired you to open your own gallery?
I started buying art when I moved to Africa 15 years ago
for my work. As a collector, you can’t help but become
more interested in visual arts and the process of making
art. I began building relationships with artists, and it
was at that point that I started thinking about taking the
next step. I decided to found the gallery to support,
complement, and highlight the art scene that already
exists in Ghana. Many of the artists the gallery is
working with have become increasingly visible on the
institutional circuits of museums and biennials but
do not have gallery representation at home.
Can you explain a bit about the significance of the
gallery’s name?
It is named for the year Ghana gained independence
from colonial rule. In choosing a name, I wanted something powerful and easily identifiable with Ghanaian
history and culture.
It seems that your major focus is to provide a way
for collectors in Ghana to begin acquiring work
made by artists from Ghana, rather than having
those artists selling work primarily abroad or on
the international art fair circuit. How would you
describe the collecting community in Ghana itself?
I think community is the right word. There is a
community of people who are highly interested in and
110
Can you tell us about some of the work
in your personal collection? What would be a
dream acquisition?
My collection includes works by Ablade Glover,
Kofi Agorsor, Hakajaka, Krotteh Teteh, and Jimoh
Buraimoh, as well as the younger artists like Serge
Attukwei Clottey, Zohra Opoku, Ibrahim Mahama,
Yaw Owusu, and Quarshie. If I had to choose one
acquisition, I would settle for Monet’s “Water Lilies”
series. I first saw the exhibition in the Musée de
l’Orangerie in Paris in 2011, and it was stunning.
I remember being completely mesmerized by these
large landscapes that adorned the walls of the
NII ODZENMA

What other resources or venues currently exist for
the artistic community in Ghana?
We have a highly respected art school in Kumasi, Ghana’s
second city, at the Kwame Nkrumah University of
Science and Technology (known as KNUST), renowned
for producing ambitious artists such as Ibrahim
Mahama, Ablade Glover, and El Anatsui. Gallery 1957
artists Yaw Owusu and Jeremiah Quarshie studied
there, and some very interesting performance artists
are currently at the school, like Bernard Akoi-Jackson.
We work with Ano, a cultural research initiative
founded by our creative director, Nana Oforiatta Ayim;
our opening exhibition by Clottey, “My Mother’s
Wardrobe,” was a result of his residency there.
Through Ano, Ayim has explored ideas of narratives
and identity, aiming to challenge current historiographies as well as transform social contexts while
theorizing about art from Africa within Africa.
Also, the Nubuke Foundation is one of the most
important organizations in the city and promotes
Ghanaian visual arts and other forms of culture. They
are very nurturing of young artists and have a real
spirit of collaboration, often working with other
organizations, like KNUST and the University of Ghana. two elliptical-shaped rooms that housed them. That is
what great art can do to you. CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: THREE IMAGES, SERGE ATTUKWEI CLOTTEY, GOLOKAL, AND GALLERY 1957; JEREMIAH QUARSHIE AND GALLERY 1957
When’s a good time to visit Ghana?
In August we have an annual street art festival, Chale
Wote, that takes over the Accra neighborhood of
Jamestown with art, music, dance, and performances,
organized by Accra dot Alt. Around 200 artists take
part, and more than 10,000 people attend. This really
is something special, and it’s worth visiting Ghana
specifically for this event.
Art from Africa has been on the ascendant as of
late—for example, the “Focus: African Perspectives”
section at the 2016 Armory Show in New York.
Are there any other international developments in
this regard that have inspired you?
The curatorial rewiring of contemporary African art
on a global scale has been happening for several
decades now. As it should be, we now increasingly
see artists from Africa
presented alongside the
work of their international
peers, and they are no
longer defined just by their
continent but by the
quality of their work.
Okwui Enwezor’s Venice
Biennale last year
was inspiring, as was
Koyo Kouoh’s edition of
EVA International in Ireland.
Obviously, the art fair 1:54,
initiated by Touria El
Glaoui in 2013 in London and now
also taking place in New York, has
also been successful in exposing the
works of the continent. I would,
however, like to see something like
1:54 not only in London and America,
but also on the African continent.
It is important that we get the
art world to the places where
these artists gain their inspiration.
exciting, emotive, and often experimental. Beyond that,
we’re seeing that most of the young artists use their art
as a platform to raise awareness of social and political
issues that currently exist in their communities.
What exhibitions do you have coming up?
We have a solo exhibition by painter Jeremiah Quarshie,
“Yellow is the Colour of Water.” He makes large-scale
hyperrealistic portraits that bring some of the social and
political issues facing Ghana to the fore. Then performance artist Elisabeth Efua Sutherland will show with us
following a residency with Ano. We will be exhibiting in
early October at 1:54 in London. I am also looking forward
to mounting a show of new paintings by Victor Butler.
Serge Attukwei Clottey is working on a project and
performance to draw attention to the pollution in the Korle
Lagoon in Accra; both Clottey
and Sutherland will be performing at the Chale Wote
festival in late August. MP

Is there a prevailing spirit or

unites some of the work currently
being produced in Ghana?
There are some very talented artists
in Ghana whose work embraces
a freedom of self-expression and
reflects the society of our time.
The work being created here is very
