Marc Glimcher

When Glimcher took over from his famous art-dealer father about a decade ago, there were many raised eyebrows. Clients of Pace are the most discerning, wealthiest, art collectors in the world: figures such as David Rockefeller and LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault. Even in the wake of the global financial crisis, Pace was turning over a reported US$450 million in 2012. Under Marc’s watch Pace has expanded from four galleries to 10. It just opened its 10th, in Hong Kong — its second space in the city — to coincide with Art Basel Hong Kong (29-31 March 2018).
