In the time since he opened a rickety poster shop in Los Angeles in the early 1970s, it can be argued that Larry Gagosian has done more to change the face of the contemporary art world than any other dealer. When Gagosian expanded his uptown empire to Chelsea in 2000 with a second gallery space, and then, six years later, a third, just three blocks away, the dealer accounted for some of the city’s most sought-after commercial real estate. Along with art world luminaries such as Jeff Koons and Richard Prince, Gagosian’s A-list roster of artists also includes Damien Hirst, who holds the title of highest paid living artist of all time.
