Opening in Paris later this month is Larry Gagosian's latest showroom for blue chip novelty. The 900 square meter gallery on rue de Ponthieu should, at the very least, add to the conversation in the city where fashion meets art. Surprisingly, the ringmaster of stylish contemporary art will open the space with a very staid show of Cy Twombly. Gagosian is also currently showing his own collection RSTW: Rauchenberg, Ruscha, Serra, Twombly, Warhol and Wool at the Manarat Al Saadiyat space on Abu Dhabi's Saadiyat Island. See a full profile on Gagosian at my favorite site Luxury Culture.
