Mary Boone Stages a Triumphant Return With the Art Titans of 1980s New York

Mary Boone has co-curated "Downtown/Uptown: New York in the Eighties" at Lévy Gorvy Dayan in New York, a sprawling exhibition of over 60 works by artists who defined the 1980s art scene, including Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Cindy Sherman, and Julian Schnabel. The show, running until December 13, 2025, features Warhol's portraits of Boone's former stable of artists and highlights the cross-pollination of Neo-Expressionism, street art, and political critique that made New York the epicenter of the art world.
