gladstone gallery robert colescott estate representation

The estate of Robert Colescott, the influential American painter who died in 2009, has signed with Gladstone Gallery for representation. Gladstone will debut Colescott's work at Art Basel Miami Beach next month and mount its first solo exhibition for the artist in 2025. Colescott is best known for satirical, large-scale paintings like "George Washington Carver Crossing the Delaware: Page from an American History Textbook" (1975), which critiques the exclusion and caricaturing of Black figures in American history and art. The estate sought new representation after its longtime gallery, Blum, closed this summer. Gladstone senior partner Max Falkenstein said the gallery had long admired Colescott and that the partnership felt like a natural fit given the gallery's focus on identity and politics.

alex katz paul taylor dance gala lincoln center 2025

On November 11, the Paul Taylor Dance Foundation will honor painter Alex Katz at Lincoln Center’s David H. Koch Theater, celebrating a decades-long creative partnership between Katz and the late choreographer Paul Taylor. The collaboration began in 1960 when poet Edwin Denby introduced them for a commission at the Spoleto Festival, leading to 16 works together including "Meridian," "Scudorama," "Private Domain," "Diggity," and "Sunset." At the gala, the company will perform "Sunset," which Katz conceived after observing soldiers in Madrid’s Retiro Park. Katz is also showing new paintings at Gladstone Gallery in New York, while the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego hosts "Alex Katz: Theater and Dance," the first major survey of his stage work.

gladstone gallery celia paul art basel paris

Gladstone Gallery now represents British painter Celia Paul, known for her moody figurative works drawn from her life. Paintings by Paul are on view at Art Basel Paris this week, and the gallery plans a solo New York exhibition in 2026. Paul has long been represented by Victoria Miro in London but lacked a New York gallery presence since a 2015 show at Gallery Met. Her market has grown following a 2018 exhibition at the Yale Center for British Art and a recent profile in The New Yorker by Karl Ove Knausgaard. Her auction record was set in 2023 when Self-Portrait (2017) sold for $122,700 at Christie’s London.

gladstone gallery calder mobile fineberg collection art basel paris

Alexander Calder's market remains strong despite a broader art market downturn. Thirteen Calder works have sold for over $1 million at auction this year, all within or above estimates, led by Christie's sale of *Gypsophila* (1949) for $8.5 million. Next month, Gladstone Gallery will bring Calder's standing mobile *Caged Stone on Yellow Stalk* (ca. 1955) to Art Basel Paris, priced at $5.5 million, after it sold for $3.2 million at the Gerald Fineberg collection sale in 2023. This market resilience coincides with major institutional shows: the opening of Calder Gardens in Philadelphia and a Whitney Museum exhibition celebrating the centennial of Calder's *Circus* (1926–31).
