Gagosian to Open New Upper East Side Gallery with a Duchamp Show, a Rarity in a Commercial Setting

Gagosian is set to inaugurate a new ground-floor gallery space at 980 Madison Avenue on Manhattan’s Upper East Side with a major exhibition of Marcel Duchamp opening April 25. The show features rare replicas of the artist’s most famous readymades, including the 1964 versions of 'Fountain' and 'Bicycle Wheel,' the latter of which is noted as the only version not currently held by a museum. The exhibition returns Duchamp to the same building where he showed with Cordier & Ekstrom Gallery in 1965 and coincides with a major retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art.
