LGDR Gallery Dissolves as Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn Departs

The LGDR gallery in New York, founded in 2021 by Dominique Lévy, Brett Gorvy, Amalia Dayan, and Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn, is dissolving after less than two years. Greenberg Rohatyn is leaving to focus on her original gallery, Salon 94, which she founded in Manhattan in 2003. The remaining three partners will continue under the name Lévy Gorvy Dayan, maintaining locations in New York, Paris, London, and Hong Kong. The joint venture was launched in response to the post-pandemic art market, aiming to compete with mega-galleries like Gagosian, Zwirner, Hauser & Wirth, and Pace by offering combined services to artists, collectors, institutions, and corporations. However, several artists from the merged rosters gradually left, including Adrian Piper, who ended a seven-year relationship with Lévy Gorvy. Greenberg Rohatyn told Artnet that some artists simply did not believe in the concept. Despite the split, the dealers remain on friendly terms and may collaborate on future projects. The website for LGDR now announces the upcoming Lévy Gorvy Dayan.
