On the eve of its 30th anniversary, Marianne Boesky Gallery reaffirms its legacy as a champion of visionary voices in contemporary art. Based in New York, the gallery has been instrumental in developing the careers of some of the most exciting and influential artists working today.

Marianne Boesky founded her eponymous gallery in 1996; that year, the gallery presented solo exhibitions in Soho with Lisa Yuskavage, Polly Apfelbaum, and Diti Almog. By 1998, Sarah Sze, Yoshitomo Nara, and Takashi Murakami had joined the gallery’s growing roster. From its inception, the mission of the gallery was clear: to support artists’ developing practices while cultivating meaningful relationships with prominent arts institutions and private collectors. For three decades, this thoughtful, artist-centric approach has helped to realize museum exhibitions, public art projects, and commissions for the gallery’s artists across the U.S., Europe, and Asia. 

In 2007, Marianne Boesky Gallery opened its flagship space in Chelsea; in the following years, Boesky experimented with a curatorial laboratory on the Upper East Side and a project space on the Lower East Side, and established a presence in Aspen, CO. The gallery’s program evolved to welcome such critically acclaimed artists as Ghada Amer, Sanford Biggers, the Haas Brothers, Frank Stella, and Donald Moffett while also reintroducing Arte Povera pioneer Pier Paolo Calzolari to international audiences. 

Today, Marianne Boesky Gallery continues in the same tradition in which it was founded, fostering emerging and established talent alike while strengthening ties with both individual and institutional collectors. In recent years, the gallery has welcomed a host of innovative, emerging artists to the program, including Gabriel Chaile, Thalita Hamaoui, Danielle Mckinney, Dora Jeridi, and Michaela Yearwood-Dan, while also coming to represent two underappreciated figures in Postwar American art, Jennifer Bartlett and Mary Lovelace O’Neal.
