art mary boone prison art dealer interview

Mary Boone, the renowned gallerist who closed her eponymous gallery in 2019 after being sentenced to prison for tax evasion, has returned to the New York art scene. She is collaborating on the exhibition "Uptown/Downtown" at Lévy Gorvy Dayan, on view through December 13. The show features works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Richard Prince, and Cindy Sherman, among others, and explores the 1980s New York art world. In an interview, Boone discusses her comeback, the optimism of the 1980s that allowed her to succeed as a woman without family connections, and the current re-examination of that era.
