In New York, VENUS has collaborated with artist foundations, estates, and galleries including The Calder Foundation, White Columns, Sprüth Magers, David Zwirner, the estate of William Copley and the estate of Allan Frumkin.
VENUS opened its Los Angeles space in May 2015. The Los Angeles gallery hosts a primary program in a 14,500 square foot exhibition space in the downtown arts district. It presents exhibitions by a roster of established and emerging talent including Dan Colen, Katherine Bernhardt, Dan McCarthy, Adel Abdessemed, Marianne Vitale, and Elaine Cameron-Weir.
