Pace Gallery

Pace artists #RobertFrank, #PaulGraham, #EmmetGowin, #RichardMisrach, and #TrevorPaglen are featured in Aperture's Fall 2024 issue, "Arrhythmic Mythic Ra," guest edited by Deana Lawson. The issue refracts themes of family, social history, and the astrophysical through the eyes of Lawson, one of the most compelling photographers working today. "I believe we all need to observe things we don't understand," Lawson says, regarding her approach to the issue. "Arrhythmic Mythic Ra" invites readers to confront the unknowability of every photograph, offering a meditation on the mysterious relationship between the visible and invisible world. Later this month, Aperture will honor Richard Misrach during its 2024 Gala.

Pace Live is pleased to present “In Conversation: Joel Shapiro and Phong H. Bui, Publisher & Artistic Director of the Brooklyn Rail” on Saturday, October 26 at the gallery’s 540 West 25th Street space in New York. On the occasion of Joel Shapiro: Out of the Blue, the artist’s first solo show with Pace in New York since 2014, this talk will explore sculpture’s ability to alter one’s sense of space and scale while offering a vibrant glimpse of Shapiro’s practice, distinguished by its dynamism, complexity, and formal elegance. Phong H. Bui is an artist, writer, independent curator, and Co-Founder and Publisher/Artistic Director of the Brooklyn Rail, Rail Editions, River Rail and Rail Curatorial Projects. Bui has organized more than ninety exhibitions since 2000, and is a Board Member of International Association of Art Critics (2007-2019), Anthology Film Archives (2017-2023), Denniston Hill, Fountain House, Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, Monira Foundation, Second Shift Studio Space St. Paul, Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program, Studio in a School, the Third Rail, and the Center for Fiction. Joel Shapiro has produced a body of work ranging in material, scale, and form that embraces an investigation of process and a vocabulary of rectilinear shapes. Emerging from the Postminimalist generation of the 1970s, his practice developed during a time of institutional critique, deconstruction, and urban intervention. Subverting a distinction between abstraction and representation, Shapiro reconsiders the modern figurative tradition, creating abstract geometric sculpture. He elicits a sense of movement in his works, which, through the arrangement of simplified elements, are powerfully suggestive of active human forms that appear to reach, balance, and dance, engaging viewers’ physical and psychological relationships with space.

Happy birthday to #LouiseNevelson! A leading sculptor of the twentieth century, Nevelson pioneered site-specific and installation art with her monochromatic wood sculptures made of box-like structures and nested objects. To mark Nevelson’s 125th birthday this year, The Art Students League will host a panel discussion with Pace Founder and Chairman #ArneGlimcher, who has been exhibiting her work since 1961 and was a close friend of the artist during her lifetime, and Columbia University Professor Julia Bryan-Wilson, author of Louise Nevelson’s Sculpture: Drag, Color, Join, Face (Yale University Press, 2023) and curator of the acclaimed exhibition "Louise Nevelson: Persistence," a collateral event of the 2022 #VeniceBiennale. Moderated by Pace’s Chief Curator Oliver Shultz, this live discussion of Nevelson’s life and legacy will be held at the Arts Student League, where she studied in the early years of her career, on October 1. The artist will also be honored at the League’s 2024 Gala on November 4 with a posthumous award.

At our 508 and 510 West 25th Street galleries, Joel Shapiro returns with renewed vigor to vibrant, precariously joined, free-standing sculptures that, although floor-bound, retain intimations of flight, expansion, and buoyancy in "Out of the Blue." On the second floor of our 540 West 25th street flagship, "Mary Corse: Presence in Light" illuminates the energetic relationship between individual and object.

We are pleased to announce the appointment of Evelyn Lin as President of Greater China. With a long and distinguished career at Christie’s and Sotheby’s, Lin will spearhead sales, business development, and artist engagement in the region, starting October 1. Her leadership marks a pivotal moment for Pace as it strengthens its influence in Asia. Based in Hong Kong, she will oversee the gallery’s teams in both Hong Kong and Beijing. Lin’s first major project as Pace’s President of Greater China will be an exhibition of work by Robert Indiana, on view at the gallery’s H Queen's location from March 24 to April 30, 2025, following the artist’s major survey Robert Indiana: The Sweet Mystery at the Procuratie Vecchie, an official collateral event of the 2024 Venice Biennale. The show, coinciding with next year's edition of Art Basel Hong Kong, will include sculptures and paintings from throughout Indiana’s career, showcasing his uniquely graphic visual vocabulary that made him one of the most inventive and enduring figures in the history of American art. Lin has worked in auctions since 1998, most recently serving as Co-Head of Christie’s 20th and 21st Century Art Department. She joined Christie’s as Deputy Chairman in 2018 from Sotheby’s, where she served as Head of Contemporary Art, Asia, from 2004 to 2017. Over the course of her career, Lin has set new auction records for renowned artists such as Sanyu, Zeng Fanzhi, Kim Whanki, and Zhang Xiaogang, who is represented by Pace. In 2015, she played a crucial role in introducing the influential Gutai and Dansaekhwa movements to international audiences through a groundbreaking Sotheby’s exhibition. Her appointment as Pace’s President of Greater China ushers in a new era of the gallery’s history in Asia, where it has been active since 2008, the year its Beijing space opened in the 798 Art District. Lin will work closely with Youngjoo Lee, Senior Vice President of Pace in Seoul, and Kyoko Hattori, Vice President of the gallery’s new space in Tokyo—together, these three leaders of the team in Asia have expertise in the art industry across the continent, making Pace one of the most prominent international galleries in the region. Over the last ten years, Pace has established permanent locations in Hong Kong, Seoul, and, most recently, Tokyo, where an inaugural presentation by artist Maysha Mohamedi opened this month. Evelyn Lin joins Pace following the recent departure of Leng Lin, former President of Pace in Asia, after 16 years with the gallery. During his tenure with Pace, Leng Lin played a key role in Pace’s early investment and growth in Asia, opening the gallery’s first space on the continent in Beijing.
