Mid-career artist\u00a0Joe Bradley<\/a>, known for his improvisational mixed media paintings that reference things like children\u2019s drawings and comic books, has left\u00a0Gagosian<\/a>\u00a0gallery after five years of representation to show with\u00a0Petzel<\/a>\u00a0gallery in New York.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe gallery is super dynamic and has an unusual, thoughtful program,\u201d Bradley said of Petzel from France, where he has been living and working with an artist visa since last fall. \u201cI\u2019ve seen a lot of great shows there. It\u2019s an exciting venue with a painting program that is exciting and lively.\u201d Petzel shows numerous celebrated painters, among them Charline von Heyl, Derek Fordjour, and Sarah Morris. \u201cThe program also feels very diverse. I can fit in there without being too close stylistically, or in spirit, to any of the other painters in the stable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have admired Joe\u2019s work for many years,\u201d gallery founder\u00a0Friedrich Petzel<\/a>\u00a0said in a statement. \u201cHis freedom in exploring different painting techniques reminds me of artists like Asger Jorn and Charline von Heyl. I am thrilled that Joe will join the gallery and am excited to introduce him and his work to the Petzel audience.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to signing with Petzel in New York, Bradley has signed with\u00a0Xavier Hufkens<\/a>\u00a0in Brussels<\/span>, and will continue to show with his longtime Zurich rep, Galerie\u00a0Eva Presenhuber<\/a>. (Petzel has two locations in New York and\u00a0Capitain Petzel<\/a>, a collaboration with dealer Gisela Capitain, in Berlin.) Gagosian Gallery did not return a request for comment.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI have been a longtime admirer of Joe\u2019s work,\u201d said Hufkens in a statement. \u201cHis controlled wit challenges how we think about painting. It encourages a careful, attentive gaze, which today feels more relevant than ever. We are truly excited that Joe has joined the gallery.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bradley has changed galleries several times.\u00a0<\/span>After early-career exhibitions with Kenny Schachter\u2019s Rove gallery in New York in the early 2000s after he graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design, Bradley\u2019s first gallery representation was with New York\u2019s Canada gallery, which showed him from 2006 until 2011, when he joined the stable of the now-defunct Gavin Brown\u2019s Enterprise. In 2015, he joined Gagosian. (At the time, Bradley said he would maintain a relationship with Canada gallery, though he will no longer show there, according to Petzel.) Between 2016 and 2018, Gagosian mounted solo exhibitions of Bradley\u2019s work in its spaces in New York, Los Angeles, Geneva, and London. Gagosian was one of the sponsors of Bradley\u2019s 2017 mid-career museum retrospective at the Albright Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

On the market, Bradley\u2019s work breached the $1 million mark\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>in 2014, when one of his abstract paintings on drop cloth sold for over $1.5 million at Christie\u2019s London. In November 2015, just days after the announcement that he\u2019d joined Gagosian\u2014and six months after his appearance in \u201cThe Forever Now,\u201d an influential group show of paintings at the Museum of Modern Art\u2014an abstract painting by Bradley sold for $3 million at Christie\u2019s in New York. His prices have since plateaued; the highest price achieved at auction since 2018 was $680,000 for an abstract painting at Sotheby\u2019s New York in November 2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is unusual for an artist to leave one of the world\u2019s handful of large galleries with locations around the world, though in the \u201900s there were several examples of such changes: Sue Williams went back to 303 Gallery, which had nurtured her career from the beginning, after doing one show with David Zwirner, and both Ghada Amer and Tom Friedman left Gagosian after several years of representation. More recently, painter Cecily Brown left Gagosian, and now shows with Paula Cooper.<\/p>\n

Bradley\u2019s first appearance at Petzel will be in a group show this summer. In September, he will be in a two-artist exhibition with Tobias Pils at Capitain Petzel. His first solo outing with Petzel is scheduled for Spring 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n
