• Luhring Augustine Gallery Is Closing Its Tribeca Branch (artnet.com) — Luhring Augustine is quietly closing its Tribeca gallery, but its primary location remains in Chelsea at 531 West 24th Street, continuing to anchor the neighborhood's gallery scene. The move reflects broader cost-cutting across major galleries as the art market softens, following leadership changes and the sale of the gallery's former Bushwick space.
