A memorable encounter in New York!

Last autumn, we spoke with Kaeli Deane, Senior Director at Lisson Gallery and representative of the Estate of Carmen Herrera. Having known the artist personally, she shared inspiring insights into Herrera’s life, work, and extraordinary legacy.

We are delighted to share a glimpse of that conversation, inspired by our acquisition of Thrust (1950) by Carmen Herrera.
