Overview

• Kasmin gallery will shutter this autumn and transition into Olney Gleason helmed by longtime executives Nick Olney and Eric Gleason.
• The plan was devised with founder Paul Kasmin before his death and proceeds with full support from his estate.
• The new Chelsea space will launch with an inaugural show featuring about 25 artists and estates drawn from Kasmin’s roster.
• Approximately 80 percent of the inaugural lineup joined the gallery within the past five years, underscoring its recent focus on contemporary art.
• Olney Gleason aims to uphold Kasmin’s ethos by pairing contemporary artists with historical estates, including its recent representation of the Jackson Pollock estate.
