In this episode of the ArtTactic Podcast, host Adam Green sits down with Alexander Berggruen, founder of Alexander Berggruen, as the gallery approaches its fifth anniversary. Alex reflects on key lessons learned over the past five years and shares what it’s like to run a gallery in the competitive New York City art scene. In light of the recent Armory Show, he also discusses his strategy behind solo versus group presentations at art fairs. Additionally, they explore the vibrant UK art scene and why Alex has focused on exhibiting UK-based artists in New York. Alex further explains how growing up in a family-run gallery has influenced his approach and why he chose the Upper East Side for his gallery instead of Chelsea or Tribeca.
