Curated reports on the new Gagosian Paris and Cy Twombly’s “Camino Real” -

New space, old hat. Larry Gagosian has expanded his gallery empire to Paris. Abstract expressionist Cy Twombly opens the location, offering 5 new paintings. The artist, one of undeniable stature, fits the Gagosian mold – big names for big spenders. Not a knock, but a reality that keeps the Gagosian clock ticking.

Arrested Motion writes, “Camino Real, which is a reference to a Tennessee Williams play, looks like an extension of Twombly’s Rose and Peony series, with its vivid colors and effusive gestures. Also on view are editions of the artist’s bronze sculptures. If you are in Paris, stop by the gallery before Dec. 23 and witness the attempt at world domination yourself.”

New York’s Gagosian Gallery has recently opened their first retail space in the city. The store offers an impressive line-up of one-off items and limited edition product from Gagosian’s mind-blowing list of big name artists, including Richard Prince, Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst. Damien Hirst’s Other Criteria has an entire section in the retail space. You can find anything from books, prints to special objects. The store opened beginning of the month on Madison Avenue.
