Pace Gallery has opened a new office in Berlin, appointing Italian Laura Attanasio, former partner at König Galerie, as Senior Director. The move comes just days before Art Basel and marks the gallery's first presence in Germany. Pace already has locations in New York, London, Hong Kong, Seoul, Geneva, Palm Beach, and Los Angeles. The Berlin office is seen as an exploratory step into the German market, aiming to develop deeper relationships with artists and establish a broader collector base in Germany and Austria.
