In September 2017 it opened an Upper East Side space in a 1907 townhouse off Madison Avenue, re-designed by Selldorf. [7] A 930 m2 (10,000 sq ft) space [8] at the H Queen's building in Hong Kong was also designed by Selldorf. [1] [9]

In 2019 the gallery opened an 800 m2 (8,600 sq ft) outpost in the Marais district of Paris, its first in continental Europe. [10] [11]

In 2023 it opened a 1,300 m2 (15,000 sq ft) branch in the Melrose Hill neighborhood of Los Angeles, California. [12] [13]

According to The New York Times in 2018, the gallery reports annual revenue of 500 million dollars. [14] Given the overall size of its operations, it is often compared to Gagosian Gallery and Hauser & Wirth. [15]
