The Pace Gallery was founded by Arne and Milly Glimcher in Boston, Massachusetts in 1960. Three years later, the gallery relocated to New York City. By the early 1980s, Pace was fully established as one of the city’s premier modern and contemporary art venues for painting, drawing, sculpture, video, and installation art. Over the years, Pace’s stable has grown to include major international artists and estates of the 20th and 21st century, including Alexander Calder, Chuck Close, Louise Nevelson, Mark Rothko and Robert Ryman. In 1993, Pace merged with Wildenstein & Co. forming PaceWildenstein, an organization with the potential to show works of art from the Renaissance to the present. Today, PaceWildenstein has expanded to include three galleries in New York City and, most recently, Pace Beijing, a 22,000 square foot gallery space in the heart of Beijing’s 798 Art District. PaceWildenstein will celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2010.
