In 1960, Arne Glimcher and his wife, Milly—while still students—founded Pace Gallery on Newbury Street in Boston, Massachusetts. Over the decades, Pace has played a pivotal role in advancing the careers of some of the most significant artists of the 20th and 21st centuries, from its pioneering support of artists in the Abstract Expressionist and Light and Space movements to ongoing collaborations with leading voices in contemporary art. In March 2018, Pace opened a gallery in Geneva—its first permanent space in Switzerland, where it has since presented 33 exhibitions by artists including Sam Gilliam, Loie Hollowell, Yoshitomo Nara, and James Turrell.

Several artists featured in Pace: 65 Years are the subjects of major institutional exhibitions around the world this year. Solo presentations of work by Louise Nevelson—whom the gallery has represented since 1963—are currently on view at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York and the Columbus Museum of Art in Ohio. This fall, a major Nevelson retrospective will open at the Centre Pompidou-Metz in France. Robert Longo's first full-scale Scandinavian survey at the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, Denmark, continues through August 31. In Washington, D.C., Adam Pendleton's landmark exhibition Love, Queen opened at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden this spring—anchoring the museum's 50th anniversary celebration, this presentation focuses on Pendleton's unique contributions to contemporary American painting. At the Frieder Burda Museum in Baden-Baden, Poetry of Light highlights the work of Richard Pousette-Dart, a pioneering figure in Abstract Expressionism.

Throughout 2025, Pace is celebrating its 65th anniversary year with a series of exhibitions around the globe of work by artists who have been central to its program for decades—Jean Dubuffet, Sam Gilliam, Robert Indiana, Robert Irwin, Robert Mangold, Agnes Martin, Louise Nevelson, Kenneth Noland, Claes Oldenburg, Joel Shapiro, and James Turrell. This special run of anniversary exhibitions is an ode to some of the gallery's longest-lasting relationships. Over the course of their careers, these figures, with Pace's support, charted new courses in the history of art.
