Emmanuel Perrotin, the Parisian gallery owner who conquered the world

Emmanuel Perrotin, the founder of the global Perrotin gallery network, reflects on a career defined by disruption and the democratization of contemporary art. From his early days as an outsider without industry connections to managing 160 employees across four continents, Perrotin has utilized high-profile stunts—such as Maurizio Cattelan’s $120,000 taped banana—and celebrity collaborations with figures like Pharrell Williams to build a powerhouse brand. His current focus involves institutionalizing his internal operations through digital tools and employee tutorials to maintain the gallery's momentum.

Paula Cooper opened her pioneering gallery in Soho in 1968, betting on the then-desolate industrial neighborhood as artists began moving into its lofts. She cultivated deep, personal relationships with the artists she represented, such as Lynda Benglis and Joel Shapiro, as well as with other major figures like Jasper Johns, fostering a slower, more humane art world pace. Her success helped transform Soho into a major gallery district, attracting institutions like Sonnabend and Castelli.

Miranda Lee and the Ethics of Attention

Curator Miranda Lee is redefining the presentation of digital and physical art by prioritizing "spatial practice" and the ethics of attention over the art world's typical demand for speed and novelty. Through major projects like RECRAFTED and the MULT Island virtual platform, Lee designs exhibition layouts and digital environments that incorporate "pause points," encouraging viewers to linger and reflect rather than succumb to frictionless scrolling. Her work spans physical galleries in Shanghai and London, as well as immersive virtual spaces, consistently focusing on how identity is staged across different environments.
