Robert Therrien Estate Leaves Gagosian After Nearly Three Decades and Joins David Zwirner

The Robert Therrien estate has left Gagosian after nearly three decades and joined David Zwirner, a rival mega-gallery. The move follows a major survey of the late sculptor's work at the Broad museum in Los Angeles, which featured 120 works and was the largest exhibition of his career. Therrien, who died in 2019, is best known for monumental sculptures of domestic objects, such as Under the Table (1994), and his towering plate columns held by institutions including the Tate and Glenstone.

Rothko Leads Sotheby’s $433.1 M. Contemporary Art Sale, UK Returns Artifacts to Ethiopia, and More: Morning Links for May 15, 2026

Sotheby’s kicked off the May marquee auction season with a $433.1 million result from its modern and contemporary art evening sales in New York. The sale was led by Mark Rothko’s painting *Brown and Blacks in Reds* (1957), which sold for $85.8 million from the estate of late dealer Robert Mnuchin, who had purchased it in 2003 for $6.7 million. The auction also saw strong results for works by women artists like Joan Mitchell and ultra-contemporary artists such as Ding Shilun and Yu Nishimura. Separately, the King’s Own Royal Regiment Museum Trust in the UK returned looted artifacts to Ethiopia, including a lock of hair and blood-stained cloth belonging to Emperor Tewodros II, taken during the Anglo-Indian Expedition of 1868.

Ancillary programming includes re-creations of her performance works "Cut Piece" (1964) and "Sky Piece to Jesus Christ" (1965), plus a concert series "Yoko Only" guest-curated by Yuka Honda featuring Yo La Tengo, Nels Cline, Sleater-Kinney, and others.
