kenny schachter column larry g michael werner gallery 2719655

Kenny Schachter's column reports on the fallout at Michael Werner Gallery following the departure of star artist Peter Doig. Co-owner Gordon VeneKlasen is accused of expensing luxury items—including private jets, Hamptons helicopter rides, and even a solo helicopter trip for his Labrador Retriever—while the gallery faced financial strain. The partnership is dissolving, with VeneKlasen moving to Los Angeles to open his own gallery and listing his West Village home for $20 million. Meanwhile, Schachter also notes Pace Gallery's financial troubles, with founder Arne Glimcher stepping in to stabilize operations.

Dealer Gordon VeneKlasen has announced plans to relaunch his gallery under his own name, VeneKlasen Gallery, after splitting from Michael Werner Gallery. He will take over the New York and London locations, while Werner's Los Angeles outpost will close. Justine Birbil and Kadee Robbins have been promoted to partners. The gallery will debut at Art Basel Qatar with a solo presentation by Issy Wood and will host inaugural exhibitions of works by Sigmar Polke. Separately, a rare 16th-century portrait by Sofonisba Anguissola, "Portrait of a Canon Regular" (1552), has been rediscovered and is on view at the Winter Show at Manhattan's Park Avenue Armory, at the booth of dealer Robert Simon. The work was found in a private collection in Durham, North Carolina, after being thought lost.
